Also you are aloud to transfer control from from case block to another (which gives the same functionality as fall-through, but in an obviously inteded way rather than happning by accident.
switch(i)
{
case 0:
case 1:
// do some stuff
goto case 2;
case 2:
// do some other stuff
break;
}

From MSDN:
Although fall through from one case label to another is not supported, it is
allowed to stack case labels, for example:
case 0:
case 1:
// do something;
