During the Korean War a Vickers crew check over their gun prior to
taking it into action. It has a protective water-jacket cover, first
introduced in 1918, designed not only to prevent the crew burning
themselves but also to help prevent the coolant water freezing in sub-zero conditions.
Some crews added vehicle antifreeze, but the best prevention was either to drain the water, or to fire a short burst every half hour. (IWM KOR 515)
