Police in an armored personnel carrier protect the atomic testing materials. Note the man at the front of the APC with the Thompson SMG.
Another APC control vehicle with fire fighters. Note they are military firemen and have an APC armed with a machine gun. Also look at the helment on the front of the APC.
Two MPC ring hand figures inspect the Atomic Annie cannon prior to the actual shoot.
This atomic cannon is a great toy. The big silver wheel is to pull the gun back into a travelling position and out of battery.
A view from the top of the gun. This is a huge model. Atomic Cannons were used until newer atomic munitions could be developed that were smaller and could be fired from more conventional artillery. A truck on each end of this cannon towed this massive piece of artillery around the US and Europe.
