A "small" "discovery"
A "small" "discovery"
Bonjour à tous
I could enter on an absolutely prohibited ground to the common run of people, I come back home with some small photos
The first one
the second
on the sockelring
third
fourth
I can't see nothing on the fourth, but it rained and we were been short by the time because of the place
All these things at the same place on a square 2,5 km x 3.
For the second and third, Jos will be able to explain better than me in English or Dutch what it can be

Re: A "small" "discovery"
Unbelievable indeed. Can I have one?
First one is a 428P01 too I think. JF did you measure the thickness? The 428P01 is 290mm, the 424 is 250mm.

Re: A "small" "discovery"
Unfortunately I don't have room for another cupola
How did you know about these turrets, any idea where they're from? It looks like they've never been built into bunkers.
Was the U-Boot bunker Bordeaux ever prepared for M19 turrets?

Puts a smile on ones face doesn't it. Quite the day.
Does that mean that the info on this page is incorrect? And was the 39P8 ever build?AvB wrote:Unbelievable indeed. Can I have one?

I really have to update the Panzeratlas some time, but I'm still thinking about a new presentation concept.
But you're right, the 428P01 is Baustarke A1 and not A! So it's 'only' 290mm instead of 420mm.

Quite like the site the way it is. Been using it as a reference on copulas and the sort though, so an update would be nice. But what about the 39P8?AvB wrote: You got me there Mark
