I never did that exercise. My experience with the towed 155 was it was dropped in by chinook. From the time we got a line on it we had to set it up, lay it, and be prepared to fire.

That seemed to take about 10 minutes, but we had the gun laid by then.

In the exercise you describe, how did you proceed to lay the gun?

I just don’t remember the details, it has been almost 40 years since I did that stuff, we also used Chinooks at time though.
