Chicken Dinner!
My Uncle was a Canadian Paratrooper and carried a sten in the D-Day invasion of Normandy. He said his group landed on a farm where there were chickens running around freely. All the men were hungry, so he put the silencer on his sten gun… he said the only thing he could hear was the bolt clicking back and forth as feathers were flying everywhere. They all ate well that night!
