The M16A1 Rifle: Operation and Preventive Maintenance

The U.S. Army teamed up with cartoonist and graphic artist Will Eisner to produce teaching tools for U.S. soldiers in a medium that they could easily understand. The M16A1 Rifle: Operation and Preventive Maintenance, first printed in 1969, features a female narrator who instructs GIs on the proper care of their AR-15 (military name M16A1) riflesâ€”firearms notorious for jamming and malfunctioning. More than a simple manual and step-by-step guide, this unconventional yet important military document tried to appeal to soldiers with suggestive chapter titles such as â€œHow to Strip Your Baby,â€ â€œWhat to Do in a Jam,â€ â€œSweet 16,â€ and â€œAll the Way with NÃ©gligÃ©.â€ A copy of the thirty-two-page booklet was issued to nearly every soldier serving in Vietnam.
