#1 104 guns on HMS Victory I believe he said. Hearing damage for sure. Ears ringing as a side damage to hearing nerve damage. Ringing only way you know you caused damage. Bet those fellows used sign language. Iowa class big guns required ear protection but accidents happen. Without protection busted ear drums and bleeding from ears.
