Atlantic Wall in The Netherlands

Baupunkt 80 (Flak Batterie Metzing Alt)

Regretfully this site was demolished, to create a parking place. The drawing above shows the plan of flak Battery Metzing at 1944.

Bombardment of Metzing Alt by the RAF on 26 march 1944. The water is low tide; the shadow of the smoke going on the beach, indicating the sun in the east, so the bombardment was early in the morning. The smoke tends to go east, indicating west wind.
