While in the Army, I was trained for Cannon Crewman. In Germany, the Army learned I can add and subtract. Trust me, that that was a rare commodity in artillery. So they put me in Battalion Fire Direction Center. This was super cool as I learned more math.

One thing I never understood, the Army wanted us to be super accurate while computing firing data for nukes, while in reality, it did not matter if you were by a few hundreds yards.I don’t think “Danger Close” came into the conversation.
