World War II Allan Williams Turret

1 sound

The Alan Williams turret is kind of gun emplacement. It was designed so that a Lewis gun could be mounted on it to fire at aircraft or the enemy on the ground. The metal structure of these turrets rarely survive as they often got moved away from their original location. The turrets were mostly used to defend airfields or important structures.
