Good evening everyone,

Here are some articles newspapers from "La Voix du Nord" from 1995 showing the destruction of the Boulogne's harbour Gefechsstand. It was built in the former seamen's calvary, on the edge of the cliff near La Tour d'Odre's fort (Stp 224 Strandhafer). In the morning of the January 24th 1995, a wall of the calvary collapsed with due to a part of the cliff's collapse. The calvary's destruction with the bunker must have been necessary. The bunker was built in 1941.

The destruction of one of the beautiful gunbunkers of MKB Westduin shortly after the big flood of 1953.

First they put in the explosives and igniters, then closed all the openings, filled up the bunkers with water to make sure the blastwave spreads equal and then....

Still hurts to look at this:-)
