Aussie Arty has strict RATEL to ensure that the correct fire mission co-ordinates are sent through, there's no b******t transmitted across the radio nets and we don't kill our own troops. Having worked with US Arty on many occassiions, I'm amazed that they get any rounds on target at all |

The Royal Artillery (or Drop Shorts) as they are affectionately known, their voice messages are usually - "bugger! - missed!" It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than open one's mouth and remove all doubt |

Artillery: A big bang here and a bigger bang somewhere else. Not necessarily where you want it.

The oath to serve my country as a soldier did not include a contract for the normal luxuries and comfort enjoyed within our society. On the contrary it implied hardship, loyalty and devotion to duty regardless of rank. | |

This was flagged earlier on with that same question. Consensus among the mods was that you can get just as much, if not more info about fire orders on Wikipedia and even just playing any modern military shooter.
