Defending the Coast of Britain.

Defending the Coast of Britain. This photograph gives evidence of Britain's determination to bring the struggle to a successful conclusion. Here is an every day scene in one of the big gun emplacements round the British coast. The gun with its crew is ready and the artilleryman with his hand raised is awaiting the order to fire. In the foreground kneeling is another artilleryman with ramrod ready to sponge the interior of the gun after firing.
