General Wainwright is a right guy and we are willing to go on for him, but shells were dropping all night, faster than hell.

He remembered now that when an automatic was loaded, the first shell dropped into the breech.

The speculation was that Rivers had leaned over and the shell had dropped out of his pocket into the water.

Other shells dropped inside the encampments of displaced people and around a hotel housing several Western journalists.

Except for a clatter, when these shells drop to the deck.

Occasionally a shell would drop or a sniper fire a round or two and some still died.

Any moment the situation may change, and shells will be dropping here.

The fire corrected, and a shell dropped into the rocks.

He guessed the shells would drop short of the Petra perimeter.

The shells had dropped onto the fort until the upper layers were more than protective piles of rubble.
