Hi Koppi,
Thank you for that interesting report and great photographs. I shall make a point of visiting this battery next time I go over on a battlefield trip, I'd forgotten the Germans had put so much effort ibto that area if the Atlantic wall as so much attention is paid to Normandy

Great photos. And a great museum. I must get back over to the continent before too long.
