This something that I have wanted to say for a long time…. EVERY THING is an estimation doing this time (1918-1945) and you are on water, moving and everything is rock and rolling EVEN on smooth water. Ain’t no way you can get a reading like that…66.3 feet at that range. Come on

The Big boy used “ranging to target” …you fire a little over, a little under to get his range and that is with those enormous stadimeter and if they hit the target on the fifth or sixth salvo that thought that was great.

Now look at it perspective.
