That thing going off can’t be good for the camel

No brah, you always hear about "the straw that breaks the camel's back." Pretty sure mortar fire is a-OK 👌

They knew. They were adding to the joke.

I would imagine this is not real. Don't you need a form ground to adjust it properly so you can hit the right target?

Having a M61 Volcan rather than this would make a bit more sense.

It's real, I just imagine that they don't fire it on the camel. It's more a mortar transport, I would think.

That would make sense if it wasn't mounted in an upright position. If it was just a transport, I imagine it would be hanging off the side.

It's in a parade. It might not normally be stored that way

The mad geniuses who set this up knew exactly what they were doing.

It’s a single use camel.
