We made a land flame mine for our demolition live firing - 18 litres of kerosine and petrol wrapped around with a few metres of detcord and boosters. I named it Sarah, in a burst of clarity perceiving the pointed similarities between our sad but highly entertaining fates. We all signed our names on the tank, and a few interesting messages - 'ROMEO MUST DIE' and 'DEAR CMPB, THIS IS FOR YOU', then set her off. The shock wave was satisfying, as was the fireball. Sarah, I hope you're watching us from wherever it is land flame mines go when they die, and smiling.
