British naval guns: An article in the Aug. 30 Travel section on London and the 70th anniversary of Britain’s declaration of war against Germany was accompanied by a photograph of naval guns at the Imperial War Museum’s entrance. The photo caption said both guns came from the battleship HMS Roberts. In fact, one came from the Roberts; the other is from HMS Ramillies. Also, the Roberts was technically classified as a monitor, not a battleship.
