This video showcases the impressive 16-inch/45-caliber Mark 8 gun breech and chamber, historically significant as it was aboard the USS West Virginia (BB-48) during the attack on Pearl Harbor and played a crucial role in the final battleship engagement at the Battle of Surigao Strait. The re-upload focuses on the powerful 'whine' of the hydraulics during operation after restoration. The exhibit is now located in the Doris Miller Gallery at the National Museum of Military Vehicles in Dubois, Wyoming. The title highlights the immense power of this historical naval gun.
