Tony B Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Didn't a lot of sections end up at Walchern to repair the dykes? Must have an HMVF invasion day to that area! A story realy very little known. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcspool Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Didn't a lot of sections end up at Walchern to repair the dykes? Must have an HMVF invasion day to that area! A story realy very little known. Indeed, but it wasn´t to repair the 1944 bombing damage, but to repair the devastating 1953 flood damage. A museum is now housed in one of the caissons!
