Famous WW2 Quote
"All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us... they can't get away this time."Lt. Gen. Lewis B. "Chesty" Puller, at Guadalcanal

The contributor ad-libbed the caption, which is incorrect. The manufacturer was not "staging a training session". There was no training occurring here. This was simply a Public Relations photo-shoot and the manufacturer was showing the use of the new design, or if you wioll, they were "staging a demonstration". Also, it is not a "modified L-5B". It is an L-5B in stock form and hasn't been modified. In fact it is the prototype L-5B which was a modification of the original L-5 design.
