American Quick-Response Artillery

This has been a life-saver for me several times in my Pacific battles. An apocryphal story had a captured Japanese officer asking about the American "automatic artillery". So, it isn't completely unrealistic. This reminds me of a scene in the Vietnam war film "We Were Soldiers", in which the NVA commander says "they (the Americans) are using their artillery as a shield".
