Given the limited resources available to the planners of Fortress Europa, they used whatever material was available. While the French tanks captured in 1940 might be old and no longer battleworthy, their turrets were still useful as beach defences for the Wiederstandneste. Mounted in concrete they are excellent multi-purpose machine-gun bunkers. The German fortifications in Normandy used R-35 turrets while those in Brittany used Somua or Char B-1 turrets. The small turrets were easy to conceal and often took their would-be attackers completely off guard.
