the previous owners of my house left loads of blank 5.56 rounds
i keep digging them up, found dozens of them over the years.
when we were in canada the then rsm actually managed to lose a LAW80 anti tank weapon system which bounced out of the back of his land rover. they cost around £20k each, then on top of that a huge chunk of cash must have been wasted for a fruitless two day helicopter search of the prairie. so naturally a board of inquiry was convened and that was that, the end.
one day on the same exercise a challenger 2s put a live round through a thankfully vacant portaloo thinking it was a target. now that would have been a rock and roll way to go.
