    I love that something like this couldn’t be dealt with by just telling soldiers not to do it, but that they instead had to modify the bayonet design. “Our soldiers are going to do this now that we know it’s possible, so we need to redesign things”.

      It’s just stupid enough, you know they’re gonna try it. Straight-up guys being dudes.

      “Hon hon.”

      “Hon hon.”

      “…”

      “Merde.”

        Hon hon is not a sound that’s possible in the french language, since they don’t pronounce the H.

        Just replace it with “Ben ouais” and all french jokes will be better for it.

      That’s like a “wet paint” sign, guaranteed to have at least one person do it, just to see why they’re not allowed.

    For those who dont know: there is a rifle (MAS-36) that had a bayonet that could be concealed at the end of the rifle, taken out, and then attached to be used in combat. The bayonet had locking mechanism on both the pointed and blunt end. And since either end could be attached to the rifle, it is said that two solders wondered what would happen if they attached the bayonet ends to 2 rifles. It worked, and it turned out there was no way to seperate them once they were put together, and this ended up being called the french finger trap. Fortunately, later versions of this rifle had a safety mechanism that allowed you to seperate the two rifles in the event you tried to repeat it.
