My dad did a lot of this. he said a good team could rack off 1 every
7-10 seconds.


FSB 4-11 - been there - if I remember correctly, it was outside and
north of Quang Ngai. *Bunch of ancient pagodas and temples in that
area.


My dad was actually a "forward observer" . the guy that strung the
phone wires over the hill and called in the strikes, hoping
therewouldn't be a short one or there weren't any japanese hiding int
he brush to get you.


thinking back it wasn't long before dad's passing that he was trying
to explain how the panormic sights worked on the 105's and "Double
deuces" and I was trying to explain to him how a G.E. Mini-gun xm-214/
m-314 operated.


ah! generation gaps.


Oh yeah - that's the way it works allright. *Every generation of
warriors has different experiences in different ways.- Hide quoted text -

Agreed!

BTW, I was talking to my brother tonight and I was wrong on my firing
cyclic's. 7-20 sec on the 155's and 3-5 sec on the 105.

get this, Tom. Dad taught me semafore some time ago. I wish'd I'd
rememebred it. Just for the sake of rememebring it.
