Not sure i know about that. Jars of fetuses at incremental stages of development just gross me out, but my babies ultrasounds (especially with the sound) were awesome.
I was an EMT in the USCG (mk3) and did some ugly stuff, but the grossest thing I ever did was cut my #2 daughters umbilical cord. I cut the remaiming flesh off a guys arm with my pocket knife so i could transport him off a fishig boat, and that wasn't as nasty.

The velocity. The 88 started out as an AA gun, and was designed to put a round way up in the air real quick.
There's an argument about when the Germans first used the 88 in an anti-tank role. Some historians say Spain, others say Arras, 1940. that would be interesting, if true, because it would mean Rommel was the guy who first came up with the idea. God knows, he perfected it.
The Brits had a gun that might have been better than the 88 - a 3.7" AA gun. But they refused to use it it the anti - tank role. Designed to shoot down bloody planes, you know.

Here in Chicago we are fortunate to have a Ju 87 at Museum of Science and IndustryI noticed it has a few jagged holes in it.
