schliesser92 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Any artillery experts know what this is? All I know is that it was installed in a vedette covering the entrance to Village Bay on Hirta, in the St Kilda Group, in late 1914 after a German U-boat shelled the islands. Once, whilst stationed there, we were doing some PT when a Spanish trawler came in after fishing our waters clean of Cod! The skipper just saw half a dozen squaddies running towards the gun position, turned tail and legged it at about Warp 9! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
