bucket brigade

基本解释

So if we re-use the same bucket, we lose the links, so that the brigade now jumps over any data between the two instances of it.
所以如果我们重用同样的桶的话，我们就失去连接了，所以成编队列现在可能在两个实例间跳过任何的数据。

Although a bucket brigade tried to put it out, helped by new, hand-pump fire engines, the chapel next door caught fire. Both buildings were destroyed.
