If you ever get the chnace to visit the Big Sandy Shoot, do it..it's an awesome day out. The night shoot with tracers is a spectacle.

Just take LOTS of money.

"Shoot a Minigun - 100 rounds ($100) more now...Time on gun - 1 SECOND" said the sign!

The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner

"From my mother's sleep I fell into the State,
And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze.
Six miles from earth, loosed from its dream of life,
I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters.
When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose."

Randall Jarrell

Hats off to the troops who manned them.
