>>So, let's see, he was shot from outside and the guy used an SPG-9 from 800m away? And the other two guys (it typically takes a crew of 3 afterall) were what, hiding in the bushes? And where did the round end up exactly? Was there a tank inside the station? :0)

FWIW, with that sort of expertise there are almost certainly roles for you that involve IT ... computerized games are increasingly realistic and interactive, so you could make yourself "the" expert advisor for military role-playing. Once you start the military part of the course, send a resume to the manufacturers advising of your interest and availability. Also offer to review war games for your local rags for free. You'll get a free copy of the game and establish your credentials as an expert in military realism.

>>>Hey, good suggestion! I've thought of doing something similar for the print trade - nothing sticks in my craw worse than a blatant weapons error on the part of an author. Steven King made a biggee in "The Stand" when he wrote about a radio chat host being shot on-air by a National Guardsman with a 73mm...hmmm, that's about 3 inches in diameter.
