I got this sign about 10 years ago,when they were redoing the parking lot and road at the point du hoc I was told this was the only one made and it was from the early 50 .

Thank you.
It is not from ww2 ,but I still think it is a great piece of history from the Rangers.

Chris, they have another now, just recently been there, they are doing work to stabilise the cliff area, and are also arranging to do more excavating around the area, apparently there are a number of dug outs that have never been investigated.

I could have done that years ago ,but was talk into not doing it because this bunker is air close due to the debris from the US bombing and if someone open it ,it would explose because of the dynamite in it.
