I Just Found The Short German 88 C/35 Shell Case To Go With My Navy 88 Projectile. Its Steel And Covered With Black Pitch Inside And Out. This Is The Way It Was Found A Long Time Ago At The Ruined U-boat Pens On The French Coast. Has Any Body Seen This Before And Did The Germans Do It Perhaps To Protect The Steel From Exposure To Salt Air. The Reason I Ask Is The Bottom Of My Projectile Is Also Covered With Black Pitch. Thank You For Any Help.
