  24cm "Theodor" Firing from turn table |
 The barrel of the 24cm L/35 gun Theodor Bruno is in horizontal loading position as the ammunition hoist raises a shell for loading. The barrel cradle is a cast two piece structure, and there are two hydraulic recoil systems. |
 This rise ammunition cart, built by the gun crew, carried the shells at the same level as the gun's loading platform, making loading easier. |
 The extensive camouflage frame and netting are being erected over the gun. |
