Ward, you forget that our government doesn't even trust it's soldiers

hurricane Andrew they had to send Fla National Guardsmen out with them to
protect the regular army types since the gangs were holding them up and
taking their weapons.

The last chapter of my "Gun Direction Computer M15" manual has a section
on destroying the computer if it should fall into enemy hands:
By Mechanical Means
1) Disconnect the gun direction computer from its source of power.
2) Open the hinged doors on the front and rear of the case.
3) Remove the plug-in units from the cells of the computer main frame.
4) Using an axe, pick mattock, sledge, or other heavy implement, destroy
the gun direction computer by smashing the range unit, azimuth and
deflection unit, fuze unit, quadrant elevation unit, muzzle velocity unit,
spot correction unit, origin, reference, replot unit, main control unit,
meteorological unit, H/R unit, amplifiers, terminal boards, and blowers.
Elapsed time: 5 minutes.

How about what should be line 0, using the gun to prevent the rest of
the instructions being necessary? --

When I was crossing the border into Canada, they asked me if I had any
firearms with me. I said "Well, what do you need?" -- Steven Wright
