Title: Swiss Army bunkers on BBC News
Post by: Vanvlak on 08 January 2016, 06:18:52 AM
These are actually pertient to WWII as well as the Cold War (and would be good for PA too!), but I felt it was most appropriate to post them here: BBC News have a  brief article with loads of pictures of former Swiss Army bunkers. Many of the pics show them being re-used for different purposes, but there are some useful pics of reconstructed interiors, and the outsid shots are good too. And I could think of cunning ways to have an abandoned bunker used as a stable (as shown on the site) still being in use for its original purpose, cleverly camouflaged as a decommissioned bunker.

And of course it shouldn't surprise anyone that Swiss Army Bunkers have a multitude of uses. ;)

You can't mature cheese on a Swiss army knife*, but the SAB can do that too!

*not if you clean it....
