Mitrailleuse polonaise à refroidissement à eau. Voici un extrait d'un interview donné par Gockel.
"....When the shelling stopped, Mr Gockel looked over his parapet to see hundreds of American troops pouring out of landing craft 300 yards away. "I got up and started firing. My machine gun was a big water-cooled Polish contraption.
There was too much going on to be afraid. I watched men falling into the water. Then there was a massive splitting noise and the gun stopped firing. It was shot to pieces, but mercifully I was unharmed," he said...."
Je confirme: mitrailleuse lourde polonaise 7.92mm refroidie par eau. Par contre je n'ai pas trouvé trace de ce détail dans le livre de F Gockel mais page 57 de l'excellent "point d'appui WN62" de H Konrad von Keusgen.
