One point about WWII artillery. The flight times of most grenades (this
includes rocket artillery) was so long that the sound of the gun reached
the
intended target before the grenade hit. This allowed soldiers at the
receiving end to yell "incoming" and duck for cover. I suggest that
squads
under a barrage should be allowed a test to go 'in position' -
regardless of
activation status - before resolving casualties.
