Regelbau collection

#1

Post by Erik E » 20 Jun 2004, 17:15

You have just entered a HUGE project, with the goal to collect photos of as many different R, M, V, S & L bunkers!
Aswell as Armoured plates, copulars, doors and bunker interior

These photos will later be used to make a (hopefully) unique gallery of bunkers in the Axis History Factbook.

Here are the guidelines:

-Only colourphotos, prefereably taken the last 10-15 years.
-Only photos which YOU own the copyright to can be used (Or by permission)
-By uploading photos in this thread, you agree to let them be used in the AHF

Each photo should contain the folowing info:

-Bunker type (number)
-Useage
-Location of photo
-Special features/details about this bunker

As this thread grows bigger, I will update this post from time to time with which types we got in the archive.

I`ll start off with a rare beast to set the standard :wink:

-S446
-Firecontrolpost for naval battery
-MKB 4/507 Örlandet, western Norway

The S446 was originally equipped with an Entfernungsmesser 10M on the roof, but these were usually taken down after the war. An S446 can easily be identified by the massive steelplates surrounding the observation room in the front.
