Arne Vandendriessche Posted 23 August , 2021 Share Posted 23 August , 2021 Augustinus, Maybe you should post on a French forum? They probably know more French sources and websites that can help you further. Have you ever looked at the walls of the bunker? Arne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustin Posted 23 August , 2021 Author Share Posted 23 August , 2021 Hello You are right, but I am not sure that the French forum knows more but I will try, concerning the bunker I have the authorization to go there with the owner before the end of the week I could try this evening. ..

Arne Vandendriessche Posted 26 August , 2021 Share Posted 26 August , 2021 Augustine, At the IWM there are some panorama photos of eecke. 1: 38 degrees east northeast to east southeast 2: 70 degrees East South East to South 3: Again 70 degrees East South East to South maybe another date? 4: again 38 degrees east northeast to east southeast. They can be consulted at the IWM but I think they are affordable. I don't know the exact prices. Arne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mebu Posted 30 August , 2021 Share Posted 30 August , 2021 Any new photos - did you get inside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustin Posted 30 August , 2021 Author Share Posted 30 August , 2021 Unfortunately I didn't think to take any pictures as there was nothing interesting, I entered with the owner of the farm exceptionally, the bunker was clearly built to accommodate a machine gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arne Vandendriessche Posted 30 August , 2021 Share Posted 30 August , 2021 Where does the gunshot hole point? If not to the frontline it will probably be a training camp that was there. Arne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustin Posted 30 August , 2021 Author Share Posted 30 August , 2021 There were two openings both opposite each other one to the west the other to the east, but I don't think this was designed for training he had built trenches near the farm and a bunker for real use I suppose, the German front was not that far away the trenches served as a line of defence for each village.
