Default 452 bty

There is a photo known of a 3.7" howitzer of the 452e bty at Breskens (1 Nov.1944). As there were no cranes available they had to be dismantled to lift the parts by hand from a wooden jetty into the LCA's. After that they were landed on a beach near Vlissingen (Flushing).
There is also a photo known, taken 2 Nov.1944, of two of the 3.7" howitzers in action after their landing in Flushing.

Cheers,
Bram
