Re: Graf Spee Batterie
here some heights
we see in the red rounds two Tobruk
Here the plan of that book (plan archive Alain Chazette)
but in reality i ll think these two tobruks are of another form like on this german plan
Dirk

But for this we have no proof
We never know the existance of these two Tobruks
In the book of Alain Chazette (Forteresse de Brest ) we find some intresting pictures

Re: Graf Spee Batterie
Thanks for your help .
But know I really need the detailed pictures of the cannon S.K. L/40
I'm making a barrel now, and not sure how to attach the barrel to the base.

Re: Graf Spee Batterie
It looks like it has a small room, like a regular Tobruk, but the entrance directly at the Ringstand, with a high ladder going up. Like on your German plan. Don't have any close ups.

Re: Graf Spee Batterie
Hello All
Does anyone know if the B. Graf Spee had a St personal bunker near every heavy gun emplacement ??
So far I have found one M 151 with a concrete covered trench and a 622 with a typical high placed tobruk .
Regards Jos

Re: Graf Spee Batterie
there is a 621 also (Measured)
Re: Graf Spee Batterie
You are right Dirk
But I can't see any connection with 621 and the heavy gun emplacements ?
