    When I saw "Churchill`s German gun nightmare" I thought you were referring to the V3 guns at Mimoyecques, near Landrethun-le-Nord (France). They too gave Churchill nightmares until they were virtually destroyed by bombing raids and later after the liberation of that part of France by the British army as Churchill still saw it as a potential threat to London. much to the unhappiness of the French Government in exile as they had not been consulted prior to its final destruction.

    I knew about this gun but didn't know there were any left. What a monster ! Thank you for sharing. It has been a lesson I will remember and share.

    A flyover gives a viewer a sense of the size of an installation more so than from ground views. This is my first view of a vlog from the British perspective I've seen from your lens.

    @northernskys 29 дней назад +1

    The K-5's had a maximum range of around 64 km's, with normal shells, so could easily reach across the narrow part of the Channel, but, if they used the rocket assisted shell, they could reach up to 86km, and that would definitely be a concern during the build up to D-Day! Love this new series format. It will certainly bring a whole new depth to WW2 History being able to pinpoint locations like these! Thank you for sharing this fascinating location, and the background info! Cheers!

    • @WW2HistoryHunter

    Definitely a different format than what we're use to but quite enjoyable. I got to see the other surviving Krupp K5 back in July 1993 when it was located at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland. Was moved in early 2011 to Fort Lee, Virginia. Excuse me, I mean Fort Gregg-Adams. Must be PC now and not offend anyone. 🙄
