We had a south facing flat on the western end of the Maalla Staight in 1964/66. RPG's fired from the hills to the south were a common occurrance, usually between 1700 and 1900, while we were enjoying a sundowner or two on our balconies. A Major and his wife in the flat two floors above us were enjoying a bit of rumpy pumpy when an RPG flew through their open patio door, shot through the wall in the lounge and into their bedoom, just missing the bed before exploding in the bathroom. It made a hell of a bang and, according to the frisky Major, caused the earth move! It was surprising how we got used to being fired at.
