Battlefront Miniatures: Extensively used in Vietnam, the M113 proved to be a solid workhorse capable of breaking through heavy jungle and transporting infantry through to enemy positions.
The mechanized infantry were organized the same as normal rifle platoons, with two exceptions. The most obvious was the provision of M113 armored personnel carriers, known as 'tracks' to their crews. Less obvious, but more important in many operations, was the addition of an M60 machinegun to each squad. This was a significant boost in firepower, especially when combined with the usual M16 rifles and M79 grenade launchers.

These look very nice...
Yes, they do. Pitty they cost the same as their resin vehicles I would at least expected them to be a bit cheaper. But that seems to be not done in the business looking at Gamesworkshop and Privateer Press if I recall correctly.
Cheers
