"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing he cares more about than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature with no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
Learn't way more than i knew about ball turrets & the awful conditions that those brave men fought in, Thanks Larry regards Paul
