At the 11:00 min mark, was the beginning of “Operation Piñata”. At around 15:15hrs, Capt. Thomas Martin (Belgium AAS) contacted me, while I was in the frontline trench (to your right). He informed me that they were planning an fly by, in which they were going to drop provisions of candies into NML, in an attempt to lurer out the Germans from their trenches, in which the Allied side would be able to shoot them. I quickly saw passed this intelligence to my Platoon commander (Lt. Simmons, 1st Plt) who then ordered me to take this information straight up to Battalion. I then passed off this intelligence again to Capt. Jim Kidd, at Batt. HQ, who in return then ordered all Company Commanders to be aware of the plan. At about 15:45hrs plan “Operational Piñata” was executed, with the Belgium Pilots, Capt. Tom Martin, and Capt. Rick Bennit, making a pass over the road in NML, and dropping Hershey Chocolate bars. The two Germans you see, were the first of a small group coming out in an attempt to claim the chocolate bars. You can even see, an attempted Allied Counter assault to secure the prizes. In the end, Sgt. Greg Jones (1st Plt. 80th Div) was able to return to our lines with three pieces of the candies.

Thats sick. Us up on the line had no idea this was going on.
@@sgt_sally looks like it was on a need to know basis
are you using real guns with fake amo
Real guns with blanks its not fake by any means. There is just no projectile to shoot out the other end.

Yes these can injur at point blank ranges but past like 10 feet it's impossible for them to kill. It's what movies use
