Scenes from "Kokoda" On You Tube

I agree with both of you guys -- remember, this is a bunch of teenagers in their first combats. I'd be willing to guess that even when they got off their shots, it's unlikely they scored many hits. That's why the Brens & grenades were so important.

Brilliant directing then. Too bad those Aussie kids didn't get the level of training that British soldiers supposedly got. Their proficiency was something on the order of 15-20 rounds a minute aimed fire wasn't it?

I stand by my contention that it makes one appreciate the M1 even more
