Hello Dirk

I think this 671d in Gi 14 has a enlarged gun room like 671 Abg in Boulogne, La Creche and La Portel,
but the front of bunker looks a normal 671 round not squire as the ones in Boulogne . One of the
ammunition rooms must be enlarged for the Lufter like one on the drawing . ( SHM )

Regards Jos

looks a good start Jos your drawing
you must have studied (as usual) also the pictures
ad here and there some niches
make the walls a bit thinner for the ammoroom and inline with the entrance door

i hope someone has a few other pictures
so we can clear this out with the ceiling
the entrance door is lower (see the fist picture) so the whole gun room has a raised ceiling you think ?
a possibility
