That lower photo of assembly of the ball turret struck my fancy. Notice that this is not an assembly line. Notice that those are not untrained, unskilled, replacement workers. Craftsmen. Sure be fun to walk that plant while in operation, look at each part closely, talk with the guys. Boy, was that ball small.
Know an old Marine, three Silver Stars at the Frozen Chosin. Deserved the Cross, would have got the Medal if he had been an officer. About the same height as Mr. Ellet.
Forty below and a twenty mile an hour wind on the hill tops. Blood would freeze the bandages solid.
