New Accuracy Record Set By New Anti-Aircraft Cannons
Under the critical eye of War Secretary Patrick J. Hurley, artillerymen at this strategic point on the Atlantic frontier test their accuracy with high-powered new-type weapons against attacks from the skies. Firing with deadly aim, the batteries, using 6-inch guns, shoot the projectiles into the air destroying targets trailed by fearless aviators. A new high mark of direct hits is scored with a deadly precision undreamed of until today.
