KVA Va Vannes

Hello All

In the sector Va there a few bunkers that looks to me small doppel scharten bunkers but I could be wrong .
Please see the IGN maps with the red circles in Va 31 and 52 , if I look at IGN the bunker is still there .

Regards Jos

Correct Arthur

But it looks a smaller version with thinner walls and shape .

Yes it's different but also typical for Va.
Your first picture reminds of the "625 SK" we discusses at Etel.

Thanks Erwan

You could be right , but I think it's just a "normal" Doppel 5 cm KwK Stand looking at the shape . ( IGN )
We see the 5 cm Doppel KwK stand also on the second photo of post 1 ( Va 52 ) in the left upper corner .
