  1. My mates dad operated one of these on his collier on the coal scuttle run from the Tyne to Thames in 1939. It was stuck on the bridge and welded on. He was expected to shoot down JU87 and 88s and the like with it. Also fend off E-Boats. They also had a ‘Savage’ gun mounted which sounds like a Lewis derivative.

  2.  @justforever96  Mate, obviously they didn’t weld the gun itself to the ship!
