Explanation From Wiki:

[During the D-Day Landings] By 15 June, the troops had advanced to the edge of Texas’s gun range; her last fire support mission was so far inland that to get the needed range, the starboard torpedo blister was flooded with water to provide a list of two degrees which gave the guns enough elevation to complete the fire mission.

On Rome, and to a more limited degree, the medieval and early modern periods, it’s a lifetime of fascination. On most other subjects, I’m just reposting other people’s memes and googling the context! XD
