Hello Patrick

Could be that the Batterie was 135 and 134 the 120a but this document of the OT the 120a was in the B. St Marcouf

No original documents Jos, nearly on every website it's mentioned as Stp 135, I found also Stp 135 ( ex Wn 15 )
I had a quick look at the website of http://www.batterie-marcouf.com/en/after-the-fights/ ( the history is also in Dutch )
They did not mention Stützpunkt 135 only "batterie Marcouf"

So you have doubts that it was dedicated as Stützpunkt 135 ?

Yes the 120a was build near the batterie Marcouf, due to the fact that Azeville had no direct view of the sea

The 120a can be visited, also the inside, the past years ( also this year ) I was there 3 times, but did not see the owner...and it was closed, it's possible that you have to make an appointment...

hi pvv8,
for history the leitstand Sk is front build of 120a. 1/03/43 for the leitstand and 9/07/1943 for 120a. Which supposes that all allegation is supposition. the german map is 01/01/1944.For me azeville batterie worck wiht the three leitstand and peilstand.

Hi Moonraker
re : Which supposes that all allegation is supposition.
I do not suppose it :) , I am only asking whether the R120a could also be known as Widerstandsnest 134 due to the fact that it's referred on more
than 1 website as Wn 134.

regards
Patrick

hello pvv8,
For the supposition, I speak of sites Web,but not you. the 120a went into operation at the end of summer 1943, the 650 azeville two 650 at the end of year 43 and two others on the calvary side at the beginning of 1944. the map of the J1 sector is from January 44 and between January and June 44 this certainly or not changed on the Wn numbers.

Does anybody know when the first bunkers were built at the Azeville battery position? I guess that would be the Vf types.

And does anybody know if there was a battery or a battery section positioned at Azeville before August 1942? I cannot find any Zug of AR 320 positioned there in April 1942 or in early 1942.
