Both of these weapons fired projectiles heavier than the Volkswagen Beetle next to it. Just to the right of these guns is a 8 inch/55 (20.3 cm) Mark 16 used on the Des Moines-class heavy cruisers. Further to the right is one of the 20.3 cm/60 SK C/34 guns taken from the forward turret of the German heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, which was allocated to the USA as a war prize at the end of the Second World War. |
