The U.S. Military Issued Condoms to Soldiers — But Not for the Reason You Think

Every American soldier in Vietnam carried condoms issued by the military itself. Not for what you're thinking. American fighting men in the jungles of Vietnam were sliding condoms onto their M-16s throughout the war and if you look closely at many photos taken of soldiers in the field, you can actually see them covering the rifle muzzles. Why? A barrel clogged with mud, grit, or sand could cause the weapon to explode — severely injuring or killing the soldier. The military made sure every fighting man had his "prophylactic kit" and a condom made sure the rifle was ready for instant use while slogging through the muck of Southeast Asia. War makes engineers out of everyone.
