I fired a few rounds on the Capital Grounds in Lansing, MI. one fall day many years ago. The leaves were still on the trees until after the first round was fired.

I was in the Michigan National Guard, in a 105mm Artillery Battery. This was in Nov. 1963. It was a salute to Present Kennedy who had been assassinated. Dusty

A 105mm would take the leaves off of any nearby trees!

If it was a live round it would have shook up whatever it landed on too.

The only'ist reason the dems and biden people are way over reacting by wanting all the National Guard troops to be "vetted" is that the biden bunch all know what they did was crooked and they are deathly afraid of what anybody is gonna do against them,,,,, It nice to know biden will not be able to sleep for a long time,,,,,,
