It's method #5 for firing the main gun.

Very interesting, glad to see you're still with us.
I knew when your sister told you not to be technical it would be an impossibility. It's how you have always thought. And I for one love you for it. Even if I do not always understand it...I'm glad you do.

That stuff is pretty cool!! It is amazing how the army stuff can be very artsy.
I love the first picture in the second set....or I guess it's the first set you posted. Love the silhouettes. And overlays...I do that in scrapbooking. hehe
