NGFS on Sedd el Bahr fort

NGFS on Sedd el Bahr fort

Several British ships provided naval gunfire support (NGFS) for the landings. As SS River Clyde comes into view on the right, a large Litko explosion marker can be seen on the far side of Sedd el Bahr fort. The armour-piercing naval shells had no effect on the wire, which remains unbroken on 'V' Beach.
