Did you ever hear the sound of incoming artillery? It's such a simple thing to make the radio call. Soldiers miles away load the cannons and pull the lanyard. Sometimes you hear the guns fire before you hear the rounds coming in.

And you wait there with eyes glued to the target. The round explodes. Another radio call to adjust the fire, and the command
"Fire for Effect" .... ugh ... then houses blow up, the ground trembles, smoke erupts from both the shells and the target.

And if that isn't enough, there's plenty more artillery where that came from ... repeat

What a shame
I am sorry
