Some Gunner Zen

First up - "Yo, Private!  Get me a bucket of muzzle blast, wouldja?"




Second up - some Marine Redlegs at the office.  Firing their M777 at 29 Palms, during Mojave Viper, their pre-deployment training exercise.

I always love it when they catch the projectile in the photo.
 
I remember firing the old 4.2" mortar.  You could actually see the shell going down range until it turned over at the apogee.
