River Rat1 Posted August 14, 2023 Share #1 Posted August 14, 2023 When in the US Navy I was in a Cargo handling battalion we had to do an offload and onload dropping off equipment and putting on equipment on a cargo ship coming back to the states we were up by Navik stayed in a Norwegian army barracks we were there 17 days with only a day and a half off not much time to check out Norway. But on that rare day off got to check out this WW2 German Naval gun set up as a shore battery. The cement bunker the gun sits on was made by Russian POW's some were shot and thrown into the concrete. Also, a photo of my younger crazy self-getting ready to be shot out of the barrel. This is up by Norvik Norway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
