This turned out to be a bad idea - "spray and pray" has never worked very well. The idea was to wound (severely) the victim so their comrades would expend energy toting them for help.

If you miss them ENTIRELY because you’re just throwing lead out there, though, it’s sort of a wash.

What if the enemy simply leaves their wounded for US to care for, knowing that we will have to? Every wounded enemy would be a drain on us
