Marvelous!  Do they have those welded shut or can you open them up?

Years ago I was able to tour WWII bunkers along California coast.  What a treat that was.  Any history buff would get geeked out with what you have photographed.  Thanks for sharing!

I shot these handheld at 600mm as you aren't allowed anywhere near them. Danger of unexploded ordinance everywhere.

The bunkers - there are many there - are WWII. There was a Henshell tank factory a bit beyond the bunker in the third photo where they built Tiger IIs and prototype Tiger IIIs (E-75) and also developed the E-100 and Grille. Not sure what vehicles in the photos are, could be WWII, could be later.
