The Guns of Longues Sur Mer

[Gil Boyd]

Geoff,
Brilliant images there and confirms the Ship guns and all look German to me from your stamp pics!! Some close calls by the look of them to especially that side swipe on the ships gun

Chatting to one of the constructors at Merville Battery yesterday, as a Trustee of the Airborne Forces Museum, and he was telling me, as they are constructing a massive car park as Mayor Paz goes all out to make it one of the main Normandy attractions. Dug down and found an underground command centre with bunks etc untouched. That will be a good one to look at in the near future when the site is cleared.
Lots of stuff on that site which is non British, like the DAK in US colours but heyho, they have to make a living on what happened on the coast while they can!!!
