    I live near Fort Bragg in the US. I can hear the thundering booms of the M777 / 155mm every day as we train the Ukrainian solders on our howitzers. We are taking very good care of your men. They are getting the best combat training in the world. We stand behind you friends!

    I was at Bragg in the 90s. We were doing a all day ruck movement by squads in the summer it was utterly exhausting. Our water resupply was at Sicily DZ. We got our water and kept moving. Somewhere, not sure where its been many years, we were on a fire break when the whole world came to an end. Palladians fired over us from about 50 yards away. They had that camo netting over them. I thought we stepped on a landmine. I don't know or remember if we were somehow in the wrong place or both of us were in the right place. Imagine a 155mm going off and you're not behind it and you don't know its there.
