Wn Trou014 Carrefour de la Croix Sonnet

To the N/E of Trouville out in the country towards the Aéroport de Deaville-St-Gatien. Although I have driven across the Carrefour I have not looked around here. Now its a roundabout and it looks as though no remains are left.

Ringstand with a 5cm KwK 39 L/42. The L/60 had a muzzle break but this is how it may have looked.
