Badger info
The flame gun is the same as mounted in the Wasp, except it was rotated upside down to fit in a milled bow MG opening. Late cast hull fronts ONLY.
The old Ram MG cupola was only mounted on some of the Badgers. The Lake Sups took theirs into action the first time with no covers, and 36 conversion sets were made and shipped over in 45. Took some time to get to the units concerned, as they sat in depots. This was not a big concern it seems though, and certainly the Lake Sups didn't care much. They state that a cover was a nice idea, but not imperative at the time they were using them. I have tons more info, but would have to dig for it right now. Cheers Don
