re Zone of Fire - Type BD.{Mr Berend} Gun.
on Motor Torpedo Boat.

We have received the attached blue print A.24313 from the British Power Boat Co. as the result of a request for particulars of the zone of fire, and we thought it might interest you as it shews the guard rail and flash cone. With this set-up, we presume no firing cut-out is needed.

We would like to have back the print A.24313 when you have finished with it.
