    Somewhere around this house I have a manual from WWII on the destruction of enemy weapons. It was with all the other stuff I got from my dad. I especially liked the exact placement of Willie Ps in the barrel, traversing mechanism and breach of the 88s.

    I know what you mean. There was something about using AP ammo in the breech mech also...
