Hello,
I'm doing a research on coastal artillery units who were stationed in the Atlantikwall. I would like to get in contact with veterans(from Norway --> France) especially veterans who were stationed in Norway and The Netherlands.
I would also like to get in contact with collectors who collect German Coastal Artillery.
Do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you very much.
kindest regards,
Michael

My area of interest too
Hi,
I thought I'd post my request here too. I am also interested in Coastal Art. units of the Atlantic Wall, specifically the Channel Islands, and Jersey.
Are there any former members of 3./MAA604 out there?
3./MAA 604 was a Naval Battery of four 15cm guns collectively called Batterie Lotheringen located on the headland of Noirmont Point in Jersey. At the same location is the impressive Marine Peilstand M132 fire control post together with ammunition bunkers and crew stand-by bunkers.
I'd be interesting in hearing from any surviving members of MAA604 or indeed any servicemen who served in Jersey.
