SPAR 5814 - This is one of a number of items the Springfield Armory Museum received in 1920 from Captain J.L. Aney. Captain Aney was stationed in Europe with the Ordnance Department and assigned to the "Captured Material Section" in WWI. Aney was ordered to secure items for the Springfield Armory Museum. This weapon is listed on the Receiving Report as Item No. 155 and is described as: "American Enfield magazine carbine model 1917. This gun is of extreme interest since it has been cut down in the field to fit it for trench warfare."
Received 3/24/20.
