SIEGFRIED LINE

A view of the obstacles on the German Siegfried Line near Zweibrucken shows barbed wire and a gun bunker above an anti-tank ditch. The line's fortifications was a maze of reinforced pillboxes with interlocking fields of fire, barbed wire, ditches< and dragon's teeth. The 3rd Division breached the line in three days from March 18-20, 1945.
