This poor thing initially suffered from a confused identity. When it replaced the 3.5-inch rocket launcher, which replaced the 3.2-inch Heller rocket launcher, it came at a time when no-one knew much about its Swedish origins. Naturally, the name left lots of room for interpretation on first hearing and so was related it to what was already known, such as the president of the Soviet Union -- "Carl Kruschev" -- or, for those who did their off-duty relaxing In Germany, the "Karl Gastof." The confusion only lasted until the first formal introduction, after which the proper name began to roll off the tongue, as it has done ever since. But until then, the new section member was just the kid with the funny name. aldi.
