During the Vietnam War, the US Navy SEALs used the m/45 extensively. One of the gun's qualities which appealed to the US Navy was that the m/45 can fire almost immediately out of the water (over the beach). It also saw use by CIA operatives and advisers. In US service it was largely known as the "Swedish-K" or "K-Rifle". The US Navy was so impressed by the m/45 that when Sweden embargoed the export of weapons to the United States in 1966, Smith & Wesson was given the task of producing a copy. This was designated the Smith & Wesson M76. However, by the time the M76 was ready for combat deployment, the US Navy interest had largely evaporated.[10] Many of the m/45s used by US forces and agencies were devoid of markings, implying clandestine use ("sanitized").

"The expression on the medic's face.
Eyes that speak.
Still so young.
And then having to go through this.
A bloody war, a cliche.
But the young ones learned fast.
Became adults overnight.
And left their childhood there.
The lived day by day
Because tomorrow you could be dead."

"On June 1, 1967, the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) was founded in New York after six Vietnam vets marched together in a demonstration for an end to the war. The group was organized to give voice to the growing opposition to the escalating war in Vietnam among people in the military. The VVAW, through open discussion of soldiers’ first-hand experiences, revealed the truth about the nature of U.S. involvement in Southeast Asia.
