One of the beach defences in Normandy was known by that name. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cointet-element according to which they were re-used on the beaches, having been part of the Dyle Line (who says there's nothing new to be learned?)

That’s the stuff and there do seem to be a few ready made models around now, I can cheerfully abandon my scratch-built effort (assuming I find it). There was a good CoC scenario that required it.

I’ve got a Belgian platoon to do at some stage, the way I’m getting back into 1940 at the moment, it might be this year.

i have wondered about doing Belgian, or Dutch, but the actual amount of fighting in the Netherlands was pretty limited.

I might have to look into the Italian attack on France in 1940, to see what forces were involved.

Apologies for the crap photos, I really must spend more time over the camera.

Splendid.

Very nice models and figures.
