    Great video, I think the narrow tunnel with the bricks [8:51} may be the emergency exit, If the main entrance became blocked you would have to break down the wall & dig out the sand which filled the escape passage. The embrasure may have had a light gun for anti tank work, when you exited through the machine gun cupola [I think that style may have been called a 'Tobruk'] there was a concrete wall from the bunker roughly parallel to the beach. If the embrasure was the landward side of the wall the gun would have been to take attackers in the flank, the wall protecting & hiding it from the beach. keep up the good work & stay safe.

      Thanks mate, I believe you are correct in all aspects, the cupola was in fact a tobruk, and your other ideas appear true. Thanks for watching 👍

    Beautiful countryside. Wonder how many people lost their lives there? Shame they or falling down due to the storms removing the sand from under them

    • @xplorer9713
      @xplorer9713  6 років тому

      Yeah mate, I know. Lots of lives, especially since they're on the Dunkirk beaches, plus this was one of the most heavily defended areas of the coastline. Thanks for watching 👍👌

    If you could find the huge underground bunker based on an old (non comedy) peter sellers movie. The block house.

    • @xplorer9713
      @xplorer9713  6 років тому

      Do you know the location of this bunker, it sounds very interesting. Thanks for watching 👍

    Bet you get real frustrated when you can’t find access

    • @xplorer9713
      @xplorer9713  6 років тому

      To be honest it is quite annoying, but as we usually have a backup plan, everything normally turns out ok. Thanks for watching 👍

    Didnt the Germans have "stronger" and "weaker" fortifications up and down the French coast?

    • @xplorer9713
      @xplorer9713  6 років тому

      Yes, I believe that this refers to the stronger batteries, as they are heavily armed, and the weaker areas are those which only contain small bunkers, like the H667 type. Thanks for watching 👍
