Are you really doing a paper about flechettes? I have not heard that term since I left Vietnam.
Nasty little metal darts which would be loaded into 105 and 155mm howitzer rounds. I was a squad leader and remember finding bodies pinned to trees the next morning.
Let me give you some advice, change your topic. There is no story worth telling here.
Regards and welcome home
