Kind of like the old fire ship of Drake vs the Spanish Armada days. Get upwind, light the ship on fire, get the crew off into the ship's boats and let it drift into the enemy line/harbor.

Yep the kind of a ship was called "Brander" in the German or a fire ship/ fireship in the English.

"Don't fart!!!!! I'm down here."

The expressions suggest that the fart has already achieved escape velocity!

Good shots guys!

 

[Milosh]

That would be depressing to see whether you are the first in or laying there with a room full of other wounded soldiers.
