"Simple, if a stray bullet hit the tank the man carrying this weapon would immediately be in the centre of a huge mass of billowing flame. A flame of intense heat that would do more than singe your eyebrows.
A great ball of flame, say about 40/50 feet in diameter. From within that flame it would be possible to hear someone screaming in some very unethical language."
That’s only the unfortunate soldier who CARRIES the flame-thrower, not to mention what happens on the receiving end. Ever see "Saving Private Ryan"? I'll always remember the men on fire falling out of the bunker...
