managed a bombard; an artilleryman; a gunner. [Archaic]
(b) A noncommissioned officer in the British
artillery.
Bombardier beetle (Zoöl.), a kind of
beetle (Brachinus crepitans), so called because, when disturbed, it
makes an explosive discharge of a pungent and acrid vapor from its anal
glands. The name is applied to other related species, as the B.
displosor, which can produce ten or twelve explosions successively. The
common American species is B. fumans.
