Having got three minuses after the hit, the C.O. is justified in 
believing round No. 1 was over-laid, and should increase by 25 yards. 
If round No. 2 was well up to the target, he is justified in ordering 
length of fuze; if in doubt, it would be well in a case like this to wait 
till after he has got a plus observation.
