Damaged gunshield at the Longues-sur-Mer battery. [size=9:9988776655]The incoming shell seems to have just clipped the upper horizontal edge of the concrete emplacement in the background. Lucky shot! The battery was not silenced until the afternoon of D Day.[/size:9988776655]

The only one of six emplacements at the battery without its gun. [size=9:9988776655]That is daylight you can see through the back; the very thick rear of the concrete structure has been blown some ten feet backwards - perhaps the ammo exploded?[/size:9988776655]
