OUCH.
My old unit was a light towed artillery unit, and every time I suggested some weapon that would improve our perimeter defense, I got shot down spectacularly.
One suggestion was a Mk-19A3.
*wistful sigh*

Would have loved to have had a mere four Mk19's, six M-249's, and all 8 of our M-60's up and working.
THAT would be quite a show to see lighting off.


Man.. Mk19's to the French.. UNGH!

(The CROWS weapon station.. would have loved one of those on our M1097's..)

We at least got a briefing from the French Foreign Legion about what they did with our Mk19s in their Toyota pickups trucks to the Libyans in Northern Chad. Yes sometimes the French do win .....
