I remember during the war in England there was a joke that went around. The
best time and place to tell it was in an English pub with lots of RAF around.
The joke went like this:

Eveything in England is smaller.
The cars are smaller.
The trains are smaller.
The rooms are smaller
The houses are smaller.
And they shoot .303's.

I don't get it.

US forces shot 30-06's, pretty much the same caliber as the .303.

Not from most front-line aircraft, at least during most of the war in
which we participated.
