Default Can't fire and retreat

The driver can't be in his seat when they fire or he will lose his head to the recoil.

Well now I have to go back to the magazine stand and have a closer look at that photo. I thought I saw someone in the area of the driver's seat while the gun was supposedly in action, unless it was the driver who had assumed a new position as part of the gun crew and that just happened to be in close proximity to the driver's position. I would think the crew would fancy him close to the vehicle's controls in case they had to relocate in a hurry.

Somehow, the German approach to SP Artillery seems so much more logical!
