My Wife and I travelled through this part of France in 1990, while on a tour. At that time, you could still see pillboxes all around, and the occasional tank shell, rusting in fields or placed as monuments.
Imagine being a part of this scene

Hi Tony,
A bit late but I just noticed myself driving by with the Dingo in picture 202! Together with my eldest daughter Pauline. We recognize a lot of the scenes and were in the same places at almost the same time. What a coincedence!
I enjoy your thread and the magnificent job you are doing.
Cheers,
