Caduceus is a symbol with a short staff entwined by two serpents, sometimes surmounted by wing. It’s upside down, too.

Nope. The handgrip of the M16 rifle was made by Mattel. When the gun was first introduced in Vietnam, it was notoriously unreliable. Soldiers noticed the toy company’s logo embossed on the handgrip and complained, "the rifle must be built by Mattel". Later shipments arrived without the imprint, but the grips were still manufactured by Mattel. See Snopes for the skinny.
