I don't agree with the tiny numbers, so, for me, those are only some examples. link Amicalement

Indeed, way too few and any list that includes a Swedish Leather gun but not the Napoleon Gun Howitzer or the 105mm or the French 155 GPF or I'm sure quite a few other glaring omissions isn't a very good list IMO. |

Dr. Gerald (Jerry) Bull, the designer of the South African G-5 and G-6 and specialized artillery shells, was a professor at McGill University. So was my father and they knew each other quite well. As a child I met him once at a McGill Staff Christmas party. I actually have no clear recollection of him (my father told me about him quite often). He is the only person with whom I have ever shaken hands, who has been assassinated. He seemed a very nice chap according to my dad. A very chilling thing that.
