When I saw the title, I was thinking trains. I have NEVER seen anything like that! In fact, stupidly I've never even imagined something like that happening before. The scary part is, if those munitions were live, they definitely didn't hit what they were supposed to hit, so what damage did they do on the ground?
Very horrifying for all involved!Larry
