TheA_Bomb Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 As a trained professional in all fire support assests to include cannon, rocket and missile fire I must advise all Billikens.com posters with cannons at your residence to exercise extreme caution when discharging your howitzers. Cannons and field guns while a hit at parties are also weapons and must be treated as such. Do not point your cannons at any unintended targets keeping in mind that a cannon is an indirect, area fire weapon. Cannons balls can be damaging to most personal property. For further information on cannons or how to learn to fire cannons check http://sill-www.army.mil/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidlee Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 I believe it was about 15-20 years ago the KA's at Rolla shot their cannon and some one was killed, I think it exploded-not sure about the details anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheesycow Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 It's an annual tradition apparently. This year they put a little too much gunpowder in. It's funny i guess, but people could have been seriously injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheA_Bomb Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 These guys only get to shoot off their cannon once a year? No wonder they are so inexperienced. I try to shoot off my cannon a few times every week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
