Exploring lost German gun position on the Atlantic Wall Secret tunnels found !

[@northernskys]

So good that there are land owners out there who spend the time to preserve the past, instead of just burying it. That last position definitely looks like it started life as a Flak site, but has been through a couple of conversions, possibly for a rangefinder, and then later a radar unit. Such a complex location would probably have both by the war's end. Cannot wait to see what else you have found at this amazing location. Cheers, and Stay Well!

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

I agree Peter , important that at least some landowners do such great effort to preserve history. Thanks and be safe.

[@tonygray1511]

Brilliant as usual !! I am impressed by your attention to safety at all times and your explanation regarding the landslip, anyone causht in that would certainly be dead. Many thanks once again.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Thank you Tony and be safe out there.

[@floridareedsreviews]

That's a really cool location! I'm very glad to hear the land owner, not only, is allowing people to view the site, but is actually improving it and making it more accessible for history explorers!

[@beverleymacdonald1352]

What an interesting position with so many features all so neatly blended to the hillside. Scary to think how easily the sides of the trenches can cave in and huge rocks co.e tumbling down. History's been preserved here and we get to share I the experience. Thank you HH and EE,it is great to see you enjoying yourselves together. Stay safe.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

yes we have actually been at a location when that happened just a few meters from us and it is scary Beverley. Very interesting location it is. Thanks and be safe.

Intriguing place you have showed us there, great to see the land owner taking in an interest in its upkeep and allowing you access.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Glad you enjoyed it and i agree the landowner is doing a great job.

[@Bill53AD]

Another outstanding find. You are correct it is nice to see people maintaining the historical place for people to visit. Interesting casting in the entrance of the 1st bunker. It is unfortunate the trench caved in but free stacked stone will due that if you vertical. I love the use of spent 20mm cartridges for handles. Great area stay safe. Do not let EE run you to ragged.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

He totally does but i am in a serious comeback mode when it comes to that and i will show him :) Thanks William.

[@anthonyroberts7718]

Really enjoyed visiting this location again. The area hasn’t been vandalized like some of the other locations you visit. The last flak position was unusual looking compared to others we have seen. The circle of rocks around the gun itself was different. Probably used what they could to build this location.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Yes we loved this place and shall return for something very special later Anthony. Thanks.

I was wondering if you could start publishing the GPS coordinates so myself and other fans can see the layout on Google Earth. That way we can observe the strategic layout that the armies had in mind. I find your channel incredibly engaging and stimulating as far as this incredible war. You have incredible finds! And as I browse the landscapes I can totally immerse myself into the battles, struggles, fears and worries of these brave soldiers on both sides.thanks so much!

Great location. The 20mm cartridges made into handles for lifting that trap door (whatever it was?) are very interesting indeed. Thank you guys 👍🏻

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

i agree , never seen that before. Thanks Adam.

[@sampointau]

I'm guessing they used the rivetted sheet metal cooling baths for the 20mm flak positions there. The area that appears like an open seat in each position is around the size for them. Those type of cooling baths were used in the far northern and heavily snow bound areas as the normal concrete recessed baths would've frozen solid. Normally left empty in winter they would either be left with snow in them or turned upside down when not in use then tipped upright and filled with water from buckets and snow when in operation.

[@anthonyroberts7718]

Beautiful location. Seeing the rock slide just shows how dangerous some of these locations can be. Wondering if some of the rocks were placed there by soldiers after the construction of the bunkers to give them more protection. I would have thought they would have used concrete to secure the rocks together.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

I think they did that to add more protection. Thanks Anthony.

Excellent Dad tactics- a swift kick to EE's butt should keep him in line. Nice relaxing music during the intro. What an incredible view from that location. Would have just loved to struggle up the hill with you & EE. Yes, must have been an omen with the propeller aircraft flying overhead. Thanks for the pic of the 20mm Flak gun so we can envision what it might look like. That sure was a huge Regelbau German bunker with a huge network of running trenches. And yes we do wish we could have went down in the trenches with you. Very effective camouflage. Oh not spiders 😬! Be brave HH. A shame that entrance was closed off with rocks. History hunting can definitely be dangerous, so continue to be careful. What a find locating the 20mm cartridges. Very resourceful using them as handles. Maybe they did have bonfires there roasting sausages and marshmallows 😋. So many more structures to see on that location. Will anxiously wait for P2. Thanks HH & EE. Stay safe, stay healthy.
