Muchísimas gracias. No tienes idea de lo difícil que fue para mí decidir terminarlo. Me alegra que mucha gente sienta lo mismo.

Note, good question
It is not about forgetting, it is the lack of use in a story, remember this (and other stories) are stories. Mortars are limited short range, have to be set up, etc. When you have characters fighting the bad guys, a mortar usually are not needed or best option. Let me give you a example how I decide what I use. When I have Sharpe go into a battle situation, I have a list of what support units like air support, artillery, mortars, gunships, tanks, etc. Then I pick the most logical one I think for that situation. In addition, Vanguard teams (as usual in most war stories) are usually fast pace, going where you need them to be, mortars cannot follow that but artillery and air support can can (both have far longer range and more of a impact). Now, this is just my opinion as I am not a professional writer or served in the military (thank you for your service), I just rarely run into a situation where that is the best option to use/show. It really just depends on what story the author is writing and locations.
Putting two and two together. If NATO can fight at night that means they can see at night somehow. If you see a missile following a dragon or something the human mind tries to find the answers. It is more of a educated guess because some monsters like dragons and snakes see with heat and can hunt at night, and NATO can. Maybe there is something similar.
Thank you. Will need to revisit that.
Actually, this is around the time I dropped the original. Up to now I was only using it as a foundation as this was my first story and figuring things out
It was recorded from a camera on Sharpe.

Thank you
