Re: onbekende bunker
Veel kan ik er niet over zeggen maar het is een kleine mitrailleurbunker( belgisch)
en net dezelfde als waarin Peiper en Knittel schuilden tijdens een luchtaanval.

Re: onbekende bunker
Heb nog wat gevonden,
The Belgians built a total of 321 pillboxes in the Ardennes. Of this total, 309 were light type machine gun bunkers (one heavy machine gun), and only twelve were medium type bunkers (the medium types were all concentrated in Libramont and Neufchâteau). The Ardennes works were grouped in centres de résistance (CR). Those CRs followed exactly the same principles we have outlined for the PFL’s forward screen. On the whole, the Ardennes light works were used to defend a town, an important cross-roads or a valley.
The mission identical: to allow retreating Belgian troops to delay the enemy and prevent him from outflanking any units. In 1940, the mission was carried out by seven battalions of the crack 1st Chasseurs Ardennais division which was to conduct an orderly retreat to the Meuse, until French would relieve them and cover the installation of the French army on the Meuse. The Chasseurs accomplished their mission with success, foiling attempts of the German army to rush past them. There were several engagements in which the bunker positions played a role, notably at Chabrehez, Martelange and Bodange.
Roughly speaking, there were two successive ‘strings’ of CRs:
Vielsalm-Gouvy – Houffalize – Bastogne – Arlon on the border with Luxembourg
Lienne valley– Baraque Fraiture – Western Ourthe
Other CRs worthy of note are the crossroads at Neufchâteau with 27 bunkers, Recogne with 20, and St-Hubert with seven.
