Hello all
That one is also called "Panzernest" - and right it is a "portable" MG steelbunker.
Widely used on the Italien front, among others - also used in the Atlantic Wall.

Hello armyjunk,
Superb pictures. About picture nr 33 (with panzernests) - can you read on your photos, what is exactly written in the white circle on the front wall of this structure? I'm trying to solve this mystery for some time. Maybe you can post enlarged area of this picture, showing exactly the inscription?
