This weekend saw us attending an open house in this restored World War II bunker located in nearby Cape Henlopen State Park. To the right is a 12 " naval gun pointed out across the Delaware River, protecting industries up river such as Dupont and shipyards in Philadelphia. The bunker has been meticulously restored and will soon become a living history museum.
Phones were used to communicate with the 3 nearby lookout towers. Nine lookout towers can still be seen along the coastline. Personnel working here are dressed in 1940s attire.....quite a walk back in time!
