Default RE: Berge Tiger

pattoncommander that reminded me of a story my brother told me when he was on his advanced gunner course with the Lord Strathcona Horse tank regiment. He said they had been sucking a few back while waiting their turn to pass in review and to hide the bottles they put them in the breach of the gun. then they closed the breach and elevated the gun. Then they proceeded to follow the procession in review. As they passed the reviewing stand they were required to turn the turret and depress the gun as a salute. You can guess what happened..... yup the bottles vibrated down the barrel and started to come out the muzzle and fall and bust on the parade square.... he said boy did they catch hell
