friend of mine was in the 1st ANGLICO 69-70... called in just about everything but 16" gunsAwwwwhellsbells! I was a scout...I radioed FDC of the target I wanted hit, and they gave my info to the gun line. It could be the lay of the gun, survey/meteorology error, or a windage/ elevation error.
FReeper oh8eleven would have a better grip on what could have gone wrong.
My answer: Army Artillery!
BTW....an artillery “projectile” is indeed a shell. That shell encases a timer/fuse, high explosives, white phosphorus, flares with chutes ( illumination ) mines, hell all kinds of crap...Google it...too much to mention, and every damned shell is funner than hell to shoot! Teeth rattlin’, head duckin’, fun.
Good evening, OO!
