GDG- Arty Anti-personnel Effectiveness

[ccj at infionline.net]

Dick (and Bob),

This objection was considered by operations research analysts working with 
the data sets.  They concluded that "...It is probable that that there would 
be no significant difference in the percentage of casualties caused by each 
weapon, were figures available for causative weapons for battlefield 
deaths."

 Nevertheless, the stats can't change the reality that only living 
casualties admitted to hospital were classified by wound type. They'll also 
miss the ones caused by arty submunitions which look similar enough to minie 
ball wounds to be mistaken for them.
