in honor of remberance day, id like to share the herioc story of private smokey smith, the only canadian to win the victoria cross: Private Smith was in the spearhead of the attack which established a brigdehead over the river. With a P.I.A.T. gun he put an enemy tank out of action at a range of 30 feet, and while protecting a wounded comrade, he destroyed another tank and two self-propelled guns, as well as routing a number of the enemy infantry. HE DID ALL THAT BY HIMSELF!!!!!!!!!!! he makes rambo look like hawkeye from mash. any man who single handilly blows up to nazi tank, and routes their vangaurd forces, deserves all the praise he gets........and a gi joe modeled afer him
