The officers said the tank unit fired two 120 mm high velocity depleted uranium rounds straight down the main road, creating a powerful vacuum that literally sucked guerrillas out from their hideaways into the street, where they were shot down by small arms fire or run over by the tanks.Is the tank commander having a litle fun with the reporter?
Dunno the subject first hand, but that's how I'd bet.

I could swear that I read a similar antidote with a Challenger tank in Basra a few days ago. Crew claimed that they had fired down a street and pulled everyone into the center of the street from the vacuum of the shell.
