This is a German propaganda picture. It shows the mobile version of the gun. I think it is the battery of Malo-Terminus as on the picture posted by Jos 09 on Mar 2016 at 13:06. :idea: Look at the painted planks around the open emplacement.

I think it is MKB Malo-Terminus. This is German propaganda picture titled "DIE WACHT IN DEN DUENEN".

Two photo's of the 9.4 cm guns from B. Blankenese, as you can see they used the mobile
9.4 cm and the static 9.4 cm in this batterie, could be the latter added 4 th gun .

The 4th gun (static version) was transferred from MKB Fort Central when the battery was disbanded.

But I don't know if there was only one 9.4 cm gun of the static version at MKB Blankenese. :?

Good evening everyone,

A nice picture showing some 9,4 cm Vickers on a pier. Does someone recognize the place ?

The gunners look like they have British Mk1 steel helmets, so it could even be somewhere in Britain.

Hello

Who recognised the watertower in the back of the Ebay picture ?

Regards Jos
Here is another picture taken at the same location. With a static 3.7 in .AA gun version in 1940, it can be either Le Havre or Boulogne. But I still cannot place it in Le Havre (Cap de la Hève or Mole central) or Boulogne (Le Portel or Fort de La Crèche). :?

Hi Emmanuel,

For me, it's cap de La Hève. The water tower in the background of the linked photo was located in Compagnie Industriel Maritime barracks.

Cheers,

Sébastien
