The amount of 5 cm KwK and 7.5 cm L.A.G. is very changing between 1943 and 1944 at Etretat .

What about this one? The emplacement looks different but we still see the same house in the background. Is it the same emplacement but after some destructive action ? :?

1940 (and it has to be Summer with the bathing suits) is a bit early for a bunker on a beach, isn't? Are sure it is not 1941?

Two photo's from Etretat after the liberation, on the first photo you see the S.K. for the LAG
with the first entrance right to go to inside the LAG bunker and the entrance to the left for
the underground passage to the Schnabelstand . Don't know if 612 was build in Et 06 or 07 ?? ( Ebay )
