Personal beneificiary of this, since we got a truckload of 84mm rounds
and sort-of-orders not to return any...


How's your hearing now, anyway?


Poor.

Probably more to do with too many 7.62mm blank and occasional
thunderflashes indoors with no hearing protection, than with a few 84mm
rounds fired while wearing ear defenders over ear plugs.

(Not sure if hearing protection is now mandated for FIBUA/MOUT, but that
could get _loud_ in a hurry)
