Firing the Petard was accomplished with a spring loaded rod (large firing pin). With the rod cranked back, it could be released to impact and ignite the propellant charge located on the mortar round. This process fired the large 290-mm demolition charge with adequate accuracy. More:- http://worldwar2headquarters.com/HTML/normandy/HobartsFunnies/hf_petard.html

From DUKWs at Pointe du Hoc on D-day by mike1960research:- One DUKW was hit by 20mm cannon fire (Flak 30 AA guns) and was sunk. The three remaining DUKWs were stalled along the shoreline either stuck on a sandbar or could not cross the shell cratered beach and were not able to erect their ladders up against the cliff. Colonel Rudder ordered the DUKW crews to raise and extend their ladders where they were and Rangers climbed the ladders while exposed to German fire. While perched on the top rungs, brave Rangers sprayed the top of the cliff with automatic rifle fire. While providing fire support from the top of one of the DUKW ladders, Private Malcolm Arnold observed waves of Rangers climbing up the cliff under fire from above and with grenades exploding around them. A number of Rangers fell when the Germans cut their ropes. The complete article:- https://www.google.com/amp/s/mikesresearch.com/2019/06/06/dukws-at-pointe-du-hoc-on-d-day/amp/
