Widerstandsnester 53 Sully/54 Maisons

#1

Post by AETIUS 1980 » 21 Aug 2021, 12:47

Hello,
I'm looking for more information about Wn 53 (château de Sully / Stab Gr.Rgt.726) and Wn 54 (château located at Le Moulin Gérard / Maisons, Stab I. /Gr.Rgt.726). Above all, I am looking to find out whether a reinforcement of the existing structures were envisaged (such as the work undertaken at Mont Cavalier to the south-east of Escures).

Regards/Merci
AETIUS

If I understand you, you want to know if there were more bunkers planned then already built?
At Wn 54 one SK was built according to Chazette, but I do not have a clue if more was planned to be built in Wn. 53 and 54.
If the invasion was later possibly yes because the work at the AW was never done and more works were built all the time.

That's right. Some of the widerstandsnester along the coast or even behind, weren't complete on D.Day, and I know by exemple than some Stabs used to built alternative headquarters like II./Gr.Rgt.736 with Wn 23.

I have also a source which says, there should be a KSS type C, nearby the chateau in Maisons.
Anybody has a clue if this has been build, or still excist?
Location would be nice.

Rgds,
Robin

Sorry, I just realized my mistake, since it concerns telephone relay.
