I watched a cadet insert a breech block into a Bren Gun, back to front and upside down, one day. It would not come out, despite the gentle encouragement from the armourer.

Just another reason why I enjoyed being a Bren Gunnerbigbuzz73 wrote:Hi Michael,MichaelB wrote:The old adage from my Air Force days
