Neither lock pickers nor enemy fusillades could bust the doors protecting the artillery guns at Ft. Pickens, in the Florida panhandle. The huge guns were buried in sand dunes to camouflage them from possible enemy agents or actual sea attacks in the war against Germany, Italy and Japan 70 years ago.
