I wouldnt want to wait on your battery when it counted.

for everyone asking why it took them so long and talking smack about how bad they are.......read the damn description of the video before you talk. it was a brand new howitzer that they had to calibrate, i dont know if the people talkin smack are 13B's or not but i am and i know it takes a minute to fire a brand new M198. gotta break it in first, give the guys a chance.

No, their rate of fire was much faster when it was actually needed.

Why? I was a Navy officer embedded with 3-71 and was observing this for the first time. We don't use 155mm howitzers in the fleet.
This was their first calibration after having the M198's airlifted in and it is not a good indicator of their actual performance while providing combat support with the 155's (which 4-25 did often and well after this video was shot).
