the enlisted men know that Sgts aren't that bright -- here's all the proof they need to back it up!!! 
talk about an uncomfortable scenario to be placed in! I wouldn't like being on either end of that! |

OK, I get the "tiny target" part of it, but why the gas masks? |

because the enemy used to launch gas attacks and then follow up wearing their own gas masks, shooting who ever was left alive, shooting with a gas mask on was a very important tool My father taught us sight alignment using a board with three screws in it, it was set up like a gun, but we would never have been allowed to Aim a gun at anyone, with the board, it was the same but not a gun. |

They eventually came up with a prismatic gizmo that allowed the Sgt to see what the shooter saw from behind the dangerous end, I guess they lost too many Sgts in training.
