"Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.

Would not think that this guy is the gunner, as his rank markings (on shoulder
epaulette) indicate that he is commissioned.... I think it's a Captain's bars I'm looking at...
so it's probably the pilot or copilotLast edited by Truck Driver; 27 November 2006, 05:27."Well, stone me! We've had cocaine, bribery and Arsenal scoring two goals at home.

As far as I can remember at least one of the people sent on the gunners course was an officer"We will hold out until our last bullet is spent. Could do with some whiskey"
Radio transmission, siege of Jadotville DR Congo. September 1961.
