161 Battery's first live shoot with the 105-mm Light Gun, 1987


In 'Gunner Speak' a Target Round is that round which 'alters' the shape of the target. The target in this case was a stack of 44 gallon drums with petrol and diesel in them...several of which you can see heading skyward, while others are starting to explode. The silhouette in the front right of the picture is Gunner Bill 'Monkey' Monk preparing another round. The photograph was taken over Mike Subritzky's right shoulder.
