IrishGunner Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 This is a relatively common photo of Marine Artillerie on the French Coast - Der Atlantikwall. Anyone else have some photos of TR coastal defenses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin W Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) Hi Rick, here is a period press photo i have that shows a "Kustenbatterie". I am not sure where the photo was taken but it could be the Atlantic/Channel coast ? Regards,Martin Edited November 15, 2013 by Martin W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin W Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Here is an artwork print that comes from a period portfolio i have by the marine artist,Adolf Bock.The portfolio includes about 18 pieces of his marine artwork.The portfolio is titled "Kampf unter der Kriegsflagge". This print is titled "Schwere Marine-Artillerie bescheist Dover". Adolf Bock was the designer of the Kriegsmarine High Seas Fleet badge.With the exception of a few unmarked examples,his name can be seen on the reverse of every Schwerin HSF badge. Regards,Martin.

Odulf Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) I think it reads "beschiesst" instead of "bescheisst", but the mistake is very funny..... Edited November 18, 2013 by Odulf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
