[Basic] Skill of the week: Artillery (and Forward Observer)

Thanks for continuing to provide your real-life expertise! I think that one of the authors of GURPS 3e Guns (title on the cover: High Tech) and some later tech books was an American artilleryman in Vietnam, so I wonder how much of this is American experience in one period, as distorted by several rewritings and editorial interventions, versus Canadian in another.
