WWII In Colour


Panzer II turret being used as a pillbox? And examined by a sailor? There has to be a story there.
 
I am guessing this is somewhere in the Normandy area and quite some time after the invasion, cant think why any sailor would be further in land (in that uniform anyway) of course it could be Italy or even Africa but I am not seeing any clues in the image that could help.... I keep looking on the web.

See what you have done now @NebrHogger Mil-smile01
 
Hmm that didnt take long I found this picture on Reddit

It is titled Panzer II Turret installed as a bunker in France 1944

The photo was used on this book, perhaps somebody here has a copy and can provide more information from it (translated of course) ;)

Thanks for looking that up! :) If I was building a bunker, I would have gone with stout timbers and sandbags before a Panzer II turret, though.
