cannoneer

1 Little joined the Marines in December 2011 and is a field artillery cannoneer for the 1st Battalion, 10th Marine Regiment, according to a military statement.

2 “Saint Barbara was invoked by these early cannoneers in the hope she would protect them from this fate.”

3 But the cannoneers were thoughtful to retain the rammers, and though the Rebels seized the pieces they could not turn them upon the slowly-retreating handful of men, who with two pieces still growled defiance.

4 The populace, however, that food for cannon which is so fond of the cannoneer, sought him with its glance.

人民，这如此热爱炮手的炮灰，却还睁着眼睛在寻找他。

5 Stanford typically fired a cannon at home games whenever its team scored, and that day no one had thought to stay the eager hand of the cannoneer.

6 The cannoneer, now trembling, blushed, For he rarely missed his aim, While his commander forward rushed, With words of bitter blame.

7 For meals the cannoneers walked, in reliefs, to an expanse of low brush, just over a rise a few hundred yards behind us.

9 Adewale served as a field-artillery cannoneer with 1st Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division.

12 Artillery is a delicate skill, with cannoneers assessing topography, air pressure and even the weather at the top of the round’s parabolic arc before taking a shot.

13 At the sides of them lay the cannoneers now held in eternal sleep.

14 Give me the cups, And let the kettle to the trumpet speak, The trumpet to the cannoneer without, The cannons to the heavens, the heaven to earth.

15 Before he could swing again, he was seized from behind by Jack, the cannoneer.

16 Every step that cannoneers take to prepare and fire their field piece is a lesson directly from an army manual.

17 The cannoneer and the boy named Nick were the sole objectors.

18 "The Swedish gun has burst!" cried one of the cannoneers.

19 As the cannoneer started for me again, his cue was spoken on the stage: "Go, bid the soldiers shoot."
