Sorry for the mistake Craig,

Captain McLean is a renouned undersea explorer with NOAA here on the northeast Atlantic coast. I saw the name and just assumed you might be him. According to my past conversations with Dr. Wray, the museum is located within one of the old coastal battery forts. At that time, he was seeking an old, heavy coastal gun from the navy for their collection. Apparently, there are not many left around, and I can only immagine the logistics in getting one transported to the museum, if one were still available. If I get down this year, I will try to post some photos of the U-853 20mm gun mount exhibit.

Sincerely,

Paul
