Breaks in story

The story about the author’s experiences at Guadalcanal were interesting and compelling. Then, unexpectedly he changed the subject to a microanalysis of weapons, functional differences, design foresight and failure along with ammunition dependability. (I won’t mention about hand grenades, I waxed packaging or white ants.)

Suffice it to say, the general ear experiences reader will be as disappointed as I am.

Shots NOT Armament
