Coleshill Underground Weekend, 15-16.09.2012 |
||
The
reason for this event was the opening of a new reconstruction of
an underground operational base at the original WW2 British
Resistance Head Quarters in Coleshill.
Okazją
dla zorganizowania tego weekendu było otwarcie repliki
ziemianki na terenie centrum dowodzenia brytyjskiego ruchu oporu
w czasie II Wojny Światowej. Ziemianki takie były
budowane do szkolenia partyzantów na wypadek niemieckiej
inwazji. |
