Let he who is without sin cock the first weapon. (on the other hand - just stick to telling people to strap in and leave the sharp end to those of us who know how.)
GPMG rounds for RAF SH have never been 'vacuum packed'(!), neither have any others.
The crewman wasn't trying to load the weapon, it was an unload.
All the crewmen I know are as keen as mustard.
As for your last remark - I hope that isn't a reflection of AAC CRM. Not for the ones I've met, anyway.
