EXCELLENT VIDEO!!! This really should be shown to some of the Germans... haha  All the more reason why we should continue to employ the bazookas and our rifle grenades!! What I especially like about this video is the end sequence of it with EVERY weapon working TOGETHER in order to acheive maximum firepower and effectiveness against the enemy. That's what it is all about. |

The first part of this video is also very good when it comes to small arms.
In one example, a Garand went right through a 12 inch thick oak tree, and tore through a metal bucket on the other side of the tree.
In another, an Armor piercing round from a Garand punched through a 4 inch thick concrete wall. This was at a range of about 200 yards.

I liked the part where the GI takes on a Mark IV with a Springfield and causes it to button up and drive into a ditch. We should bring this up to the board. Seriously, I wonder how many troopers got annihilated by following the practices in this video. Probably none as field experience would have driven this bravado from their minds.

Good Point Ron. Reenactors tend to take a page out of their childhood when it comes to playing army, than they do out of the history books. They act like cats with nine lives. This is how most reenactors see themselves, including the song  |
