Inside looking in the same direction as the gun as opposed to outside staring down the barrel.

Why not be the TC not necessarily driving it but you tell it where to go and when to fire

SGT Jim Arnold - Because there are few things in life as satisfying as sending big-ass rounds downrange.
Telling someone else to do it doesn't quite have the same cachet.

Gunner is the best no question, driver may have more room but it can be monotonous. Nothing better than "on the way!" Plus I was company commanders gunner so it was my tank for the most part!
