        Hey, Justthisguy, I&apos;ve known a few cannoncockers and no malice was perceived. Gotta admit that being in the 5&quot; mount (I was a Coastie 68-70) and getting to shoot the sucker was a gas, though operating the Ma Deuce was up and personal, comparatively speaking,and more fun. I like to see what I&apos;m shooting at get hit.

Which reminds me; Rule #3: You MUST have a gun before getting into a gunfight.

John, pixeltcat41144@peoplepc.com  And, have you read any of John Ringo&apos;s SF or contempfic?  In his SF series the arty really gets to it.  Not to mention a 16&quot; mobile artillery piece (see the pic in the 4th book) whose exploits are a joy to read.

        I dunno, John - we keep trying to build the guns (and rockets) into sniper weapons.

Gonna suck if we ever find outselves actually needing a &quot;wall of fire&quot; somewhere.

But of course, we&apos;re never going to fight a war like that again.

Bill Lind sez so.

Timothy - give me an email address and I&apos;ll send you a larger version of it.

        Umm, I think I implied, and assumed, too, much, in that last comment I wrote! I did not intend any malice against Timothy! If he took offense, I humbly beg his pardon.

The beer was talking. And walking.

        Timothy, won&apos;t do you any good when that one round arrives from over the horizon, and blows you and yer squad to tiny subatomic Irish particles, aka Smithereens.  When dying, you won&apos;t even have the slight consolation that yer enemies will suffer PTSD from looking upon the splatter they&apos;ve inflicted upon you, as they will have been, as I mentioned, over the horizon, and only know about the tremendous execution they have done from secondhand reports.

Artillerymen are the cold-blooded badasses. It&apos;s inherent in the nature of the weapon.

        Actually, I always thought Rule #2 is: Ammunition is required... lots and lots of it.

By the way, where can I get that poster?

        P.s. Sorry, just *had* to make a Pro-Arty comment. Obviously the only rational way to make war.

        Rule 2.  Don&apos;t bunch up in places where one round from a really large and serious gun could do for all of you.
