    Thanks! This location is so interesting and I loved seeing it. Thank you, EE and BBG for all your hard work. Love the history lesson you bring to your audience. Take care and stay safe out there my friends.

    Great ending part to the series. As always great information. The 37mm cannon was for sure shipboard, some ship's captain was upset to find a gun missing. This series you have out done yourself HH. EE, glad you had a great trip. Awaiting the next series. Be safe and well out there.
    Update: looks like that unit came off a U-boat, or Schnell Boat. Larger ships ran twin guns and larger crews. This unit was replaced by Bofors 40mm.

    Thank you HH and EE for sharing this amazing series of videos with us. This area, with its massive expanse of bunkers and gun positions, has been a truly fascinating look into how ridiculously huge and complex, Hitler's Atlantic Wall was. And the fact that the caretakers of this site, have maintained it the way they have, makes it so much easier to imagine what it was like when the Germans were there. Truly an incredible look back into History. Thank you both for all your efforts, and time, to bring such amazing places to us. Looking forward to hearing the story behind the officers dress dagger! Cheers to you all!

    When life hasn’t been going so well it’s so wonderful to see these videos that take my mind off so many things and allow me to relax and enjoy something I love. The locations are very special and wonderful to see. You have shown so many different locations and adventures that I would never see anywhere else. They way you present these videos and explain them is very educational, even for an old man like me. The energy that Eagle Eyes shows lifts my spirits greatly. So thankful for you and your family doing these adventures and sharing them with us.

    I seem to recall that the position was to guard the port/harbour you can see on the periphery of some of your seascape shots. The reason that it is in such good condition was that the National Army of the country used some of the old German WW2 positions and coastal artillery as their Cold War contribution to guarding the coast and sea-lanes. Nice to see that EE was enjoying roaming the facilities.

    That was one wicked looking barbed wire post in the forest along with the piles of wire! It is interesting as to how much of that material is piled up and laying around at different sites. I wonder how many kilometers of the stuff was made during the war!?! That machine gun position was still painted on the inside, I don't think I had seen that before... That regelbau with the powered gear on the wall must have generated a lot of heat in that bunker. Maybe they had some fans to vent it... Thanks for taking us along! Stay safe and stay well!!

    • @WW2HistoryHunter

Soldiers are soldiers wherever they serve. They all follow orders. Such a pity they sometimes serve evil generals.

    That place WAS spectacular! EE always gets through to his destination even if the door won't open. 😅 You are not fat & old HH. Stop that right now. That was a neat N77 bunker. Would be interested in knowing the story behind the incomplete M270. Be careful around the barbed wire. Too bad some of the equipment wasn't still there in the flak crew bunker. Anti-aircraft gun was something. Just imagine the young German soldiers manning those guns and the pride they felt when they exceeded the expectations. Yes, we should always remember that the soldiers were and are human beings fighting for what they genuinely believe in. Will be interesting to see the RAF site. Always want to know more about BBG discovery. Thanks, EE & HH ❤

    Counting the bunk hangers that room is for 36 Heer soldatten. That was a VERY big investment with this artillery site! 5:52 I dont recognise this type of gun emplacement I would like to know more about it and what the small bboxes are on each side with the shutters? Not sure but they look like shell elevators one side for AP and one for high explosive? So they wind one up from below then the loaders takke it from the shutter - load BOOM! Anyone have any ideas about this its unusual!
    12:24 owing to the sheer number of cables I believe this may have been a plotting and targetting room. Also the silhouettes on the wall, I recognise shapes from one of your earlier videos of a gun plotting room that has been preserved in original condition. The whole gun and everything WORKS! The fact that that yellow paint has NOTHING underneath it except the concrete indicates it is ORIGINAL in that room. The green in the other room is modern though. THAT is so so interesting I would love to know more what that was. The number of troops here indicates an large position with multiple guns. The may have been officers here who received sighting reports from a rangefinder or radar location above ground. Calling in TARGET BEARING 270 degrees - range 12000 wind speed 12 m/s. They dial this into a large brass machine and it provides a firing solution . You would know of this from your days in the U boats. The gun captain choses which guns can fire that direction and calls in the firing order and shell type. In goes the shell all the time other guns firing around them - fingers in ears and BOOOOOOMMM whooosh and the shell HOWLS out to sea..........
    12:58 OH OHHHH HOLD ON did you turn your flashlights off in this green room I think this is all fluorescent paint!
