Thanks for that.
Rant was more to do with the coincidence that I'm hashing together a WW1/SCP/Outpost style RP and just 'happened' to have all that data in my lap when reading about perceived French-inferiority (despite still being a pretty decent global-power, just ask Mali).

Bad joke.
Oddly enough, the French would pin the front-corners of their greatcoats back to make it easier to charge enemy trenches in the early frosty and fog-covered mornings... while screaming...
Oh, and one out of every four was shooting one of these.
-And they were trained to shoot and reload these while on the move, very accurately. There are quite a few stories of sole auto-riflemen just plinking soldiers like rabbits as they streamed out from their bunkers.
The 1917 field-survey was, and still is, pretty insightful at what was going-on with the war. Cross-referencing the units in question with there whereabouts also fills-in the rest of the story.
Will have post up soon.

I think it's weird if you enjoy it. But I've seen cats do plenty of weird things.

After we land, boy.
Your cat thinks your feet smell.
@The Mage, tell you what: if I ever get one started, or if I see one available, I'll give you a ring. ;)
