I also wonder whose idea it was to put heavy machinery on beach.

How else would you propose conducting an amphibious assault?

Does it really do any good to have an artillery piece stuck on the beach--right by the waters edge? Why not just keep it on the boat?

Beaches? Heavy artillery?  Helos to extract stuck arty?

Should have just used A-10s. :sleep:

Good to see I've kicked off the 'longest dispute' again, not between England and Scotland but between Jarheads and Grunts.    :D

Somewhere I've a link to a hilarious Dutch or Italian amphibious assault, I'll dig it out.

I wonder why we get Marine Corps recruiting advertisements featuring fights against monsters rather than digging artillery pieces out of the sand.



Because the Naval Infantry are that stupid.

Unfortunately, I don't think there aren't any Jarheads here.  Only Army Stupid, Air "Force," and Squids.
