NAVAL ORDNANCE WW2. MUCH OF THE ARMAMENT FOR COASTAL BATTERIES DURING WW2 WAS OBTAINED BY THE ARMY FROM THE NAVY. THE ARMY HAD NO STOCK OF GUNS FOR THIS PURPOSE & WITH THE IMMINENT THREAT OF INVASION THE NAVY OFFERED THEM TO THE ARMY.
RECORDS OF THE GUNS HISTORY WERE KEPT BY THE NAVY, LISTING THE DATES, SERIAL NUMBERS, WHERE THEY CAME FROM & WHERE THEY WENT. THESE RECORDS WERE KEPT IN RECENT YEARS AT PRIDDY'S HARD, BUT APPEAR TO BE AT PRESENT MISLAID? OTHER SOURCES STATE THAT THEY WERE TRANSFERED TO THE HAMPSHIRE RECORD OFFICE, WHO SAY THEY DO NOT HAVE THEM? OTHER RECORDS INCLUDE THE FORT RECORD BOOKS FOR INDIVIDUAL BATTERIES. THESE ARE KEPT AT THE PRO AT KEW. HOWEVER THERE ARE MISSING BOOKS EVEN HERE:
