...later learned that the total of 200 rounds fired had made only a score of shrapnel tears in the red cloth finger. Previously they had seen two four-gun, multiple-mounted .50 calibre Browning machine guns blow forth eight sulphur-colored blossoms, fling white-hot missiles at a similar aerial target to score 36 direct hits...
