<r>Here is a suggestion from Robert in GWF forum. Only the roads and houses in front of the fort do not match . It may be easier to compare with a full view of a 1914ish aerial.<br/> P.S. Alain, do you want to translate into French language?<IMG src="https://forum.pages14-18.com/mesimages/2513/Fort%...

<r>Florian, and Wambrechies does not match either........?<IMG src="https://forum.pages14-18.com/mesimages/2513/wambrechis.jpg"><s>[img]</s><URL url="https://forum.pages14-18.com/mesimages/2513/wambrechis.jpg"><LINK_TEXT text="mesimages/2513/wambrechis.jpg">https://forum.pages14-18.com/mesimages/251...

<r>Dear Florian,<br/> this is a modern view of Fort de Bondues =Fort Lobau= Musee de Resistance. I cannot see any road matching to the original photograph. do you have solid evidence please?<IMG src="https://forum.pages14-18.com/mesimages/2513/bondues.jpg"><s>[img]</s><URL url="https://forum.pages14...

<t>J'ais comparé les 2 forts leveau et hautmont avec les photos originales, mais je ne peut pas trouver similaritees si vous compare les rues (excuse my terrible French please). Mercy bien pour les efforts, s'il vous plait continue de solver les enigmas. Merci a Alain pour diriger mon question posé ...

<r>Alain thankfully has referred the question to a French language forum here. and as far as I have understand the town picture which was only posted in the GWF forum is actually not Genois as the author of the original photographs has suggested, but it is Le Quesnoy indeed. So the question continue...

<r>Does anybody know the location of Fort Genois? It is believed (but not for sure) that it should be close to Lille.<IMG src="https://forum.pages14-18.com/mesimages/2513/Lille%20Genois%20mit%20Fort.jpg"><s>[img]</s><URL url="https://forum.pages14-18.com/mesimages/2513/Lille"><LINK_TEXT text="mesima...

Hallo Tanker, unfortunately my French is so bad that I cannot understand what is written in the articles/news which you have referenced in your last post here. Would you care perhaps to give a very short summary of the news please?

Lies doch einfach mal den thread unter meiner signature, dann erfaehrst Du es.

Hello, is there any French colleague who knows more how the Bois de loges looks like nowadays?
