Well Rob. Having spend many hours crawling on the Honest John (as well as the other artillery pieces) some forty plus years ago I can assure you that the gauges were intact when I left them. I may have left a few beer cans as I was just getting into that stage. BUT Growing up I remember me and my girl friend sitting on it.....now .......tilted up.....youngster won't have those memories. Those pieces were just dropped in a field and had not had any TLC yet. A few summers ago I had the privilege of visiting you and saw the TLC that was put into them. Job well done!!
