Bunkers with tank turrets!
Re: Bunkers with tank turrets!
Dear Wolf-Hound,
It appears to me that the first tobruk is not a real tobruk but more a like the upperpart of a French tank (Somua or other alike type) that was casted in, a better known example is to be found at Dieppe where a complete hull of a Ft17 was poured in concrete.

Re: Bunkers with tank turrets!
Could actually be a whole tank, looks like the hull is still there.
Re: Bunkers with tank turrets!
Yeah, dug-in T-34.

Pantherturm described as Arno - it's Futa Pass indeed. Looks like most photographed Pantherturm.
Re: Bunkers with tank turrets!
On this Ebay picture you can see the turret is not yet placed on the tobruk .
