[Von Paulus]

This isn't WW2, but a guy my dad went to scouts with went to Vietnam, he was a gunner in a "Crusader" or "Centurion" tank (or something like that), they came under fire, and ran out of ammo quickly for the main gun (beer took up quite alot of space), so his friend was pegging at Viet Cong with their Machinegun while the others tried to get more ammo (this tank was designed so that the turret had to be on a 90' angle to be able to access the emergency ammunition), but, when he eventually got the ammo, a Viet Cong AT rocket exploded into the side of the tank, metal flew everywhere, killing the driver and most of the crew, While filling dad's friends back with so much shrapnel you wouldn't believe, but he survived, and was able to stay alive until a rescue party came 2 hours later...Unfortunatley, his left arm needed to be amputated, he died about 2 years later.....
