    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    TO be promoted to captain in the army’s School of Armour, a lieutenant first has to drive a 28-wheel truck carrying an Olifant tank down Van Reenen’s pass.

    During such a test on Friday night, a female lieutenant reportedly missed a gear and the brakes overheated, sending the truck careening down the pass. The driver remained calm and steered her run-away rig into a sand trap. But the momentum of the 50 ton tank on the back simply sent the truck ploughing right through the sand trap and up an incline. That’s where the heavy tank then fell off the truck, landing upside down in the northbound lane.

    Spokesperson for the army, Colonel Sidney Zeeman, confirmed lieutenants of the School of Armour in Bloemfontein were busy with practical training for their driving and maintenance course. The female driver and an instructor were slightly injured during the crash. The army is now investigating the cause of the crash, Zeeman said. The army secured the scene and contractors lifted the tank on Saturday. The whole process took 10 minutes.

    The Armoured Corps has been using the pass for decades to train drivers.

    Tankfully nobody was hurt!

    Anyone who's driven that pass knows that it's a white knuckle ride, particularly in bad weather.
