Great pic indeed. The position of the original "Q" center turret on the foc'sle deck is clearly visible here. This is a deck higher than the preceding Cavours. These Q turrets were removed during extensive modernization in the '30s, to make room for more powerful machinery. The 12" guns were bored out to 12.6" at this time.

Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill
