G'day,
Thanks for all your help (and that goes for all of the rest of you too)

The Brits regulars (at least) had had training to put down large volumes
of
fire (30 shots) in a minute (which must have been amazing as they were
using
bolt action rifles and would've done 3 mag changes by my figuring). Some

the Germans who faced it assumed they must have some kind of machine gun
or
something to put out that rate of fire, though it couldn't be kept up
for
prolonged periods (as far as I know).

Great minds then? ;P ;)
Cheers
