A 76mm gun is a fine beer loading device (covertly). We were once unfortunately observed by our CO and after loading 16 bottles of fine Asahi Beer into the gun and leaving the town proper, were stopped by same and ordered to load a blank and take an "enemy emplacement" under fire.[X(] The gun actually recoiled about an inch. [:-] We then learned that the 76mm gun is a marvelous weapon for spraying foam over the countryside and "killing" the "enemy "by getting them drunk. Also made sitting down painfull for a while. [:@]
