The M 195 is a very rare bunker but something which has always struck my mind is that on the few plans we have of this type if there is a Tobruk on it , it s the 58a version (for some who don t know this version of our Tobruk is build a fewtimes as a Tobruk (not connected at an St bunker in Danemlark and Norway
but that is not the point here
Jos has given us a drawning of the one in StP 245 Brommy (7 KVA J)
here another SHM drawing
Cherbourg SHM.jpg
our drawning of this one
Cherbourg.jpg
we have measured another one in La Coubre 1 KVA Gi
but it was under the sand so no tobruk (if one was there)

for memebers who can t follow what a 58a is
00.jpg
easy to recognise by the niche (in red circle) for posting ammo boxes for instance
00 1.jpg
i ve seen a plan Bernard Paich livre A Chazette Royan
unknown.jpg
On this plan we see a Tobruk (Offener Beobachter)
Can anyone here confirm this ?
are there more plans of other M 195 ? Norway ? Danemark ?
Has anyone in his possession a german plan of this rare Marine Type ?
thanks you all for your contribution
I ll have to go to work now (Yes even belgians must work from time to time)
