when a machine gun went off without warning,

With all due respect - machine guns just don't go off without a "warning." Someone f*cked with the trigger. Exception for rounds "cooking off" after prolonged use but that is not this case.

The group photo is not in front of a B-17. The tail looks like a B-24 but it looks small, and it has windows!
