Sacrifice? The allied soldiers died for nothing. Their populations are being replaced by people from the 3rd world, their children are being taught that they're "gay"/"trans", white people are victims of racism in their own country, the banks are holding us all hostage, and you think you are free? All those years of Propaganda have made you delusional.
Amazing the ability of all combatants to build the weapons of war and construct these massive defenses and concrete abutments when the war was in time very short. Today, it takes a year to build a sidewalk in a small town.

∆ This is a German 15 cm TbtsK C/36, a medium caliber naval gun, deployed on Type 1936A destroyers but The C/36 gun was installed aswell in a number of static gun batteries for coastal defence, for example: in Normandy, the Longues-sur-Mer battery had four steel-reinforced concrete casemates each with a C/36 naval gun. ∆ The gun house had a total weight of 18,800 kg. ∆ The armor was 10mm thick in the front and 6mm thick in the sides and roof ∆ time in service: 1942 to 1945
My Uncle was just turned 19 he died the second day of Iwo Jima. I can't imagine getting off that landing craft knowing what your in for. God rest their souls.
The last time those artillery guns fired was on D-Day. All German soldiers abandoned this facility 24 hours later. Once a beach head was established these guns had no use for the remainder of WW-2.
To every parent who has seen their child go off to war, has stressed and worried, has had them return or not. You have my upmost gratitude for the service and sacrifice your family has made. You child never chose the war but was brave enough to go and fight in place of someone else. May god forgive the politicians who sent them and watch over all those who have died, never returned or only partially returned (in mind, body, spirit or combination).
That is the lounge sur mer battery, just back from gold beech. On dday it was shelled pretty heavily, but none of the shells hit in. Instead, one of the shells cut a communication line, which rendered it useless. After the allies captured it they used it to store ammunition, but a fire caused it all to explode and literally blow the roof off of one of the bunkers. That was easily one of my favorite places to visit in Normandy. If you have the chance I would go before someone buys it and turns it into a museum or something.
The bomber run over Dresden was 1002 aircraft .The bomber run which lead to Paris from Normandy was 3010 aircraft . As a result the Allies fought 20 percent of the German army .

My husband and I visited Normandy Beach and those bunkers. The juxtaposition of those cannons and the beautiful scenery with fields of beautiful yellow flowers is quite striking.
There is a gun there, very similar bunker design thatyou can see where a naval shell entered the bunker, ricochet around and passed out the back making a massive hole along the way.
I didn’t realize how large this canon is. The shells must be massive , amazing feat on engineering and constructing these incredible machines . God bless america
Imagino os corajosos soldados que tiveram que invadir esse bunker para toma-lo dos inimigos alemães. Sem a proteção suficiente tiveram de enfrentar a artilharia pesada sobre si, até chegar próximo ao bunker e render ou matar os alemães, se lá ainda estivessem.
