Good work!
Cap Gris-Nez radar installation
A few kilometers north of the battery Todt and 1km south of Cap Gris-Nez, you can find some strange concrete structures. Three concrete pillars flanked by two casemates. These are the remains of a German radar installation. A giant antenna of 10m high and 30m long (100- by 33-foot) was mounted on these pillars. This Mammut-type radar could detect ship movements in the Channel, and was used to warn the Kriegsmarine defenses about them.
At cap Gris-Nez itself, Adolf Hitler and Hermann Göring stood watching across the Channel to Great-Britain after their armies had conquered France in 1940.
In August of 2004, Zappi, Homba, Bambam887, RedScorpion and MOOXE all pitched
in to create this Close Combat site. I would to thank all the people who have visited
and found this site to thier liking. I hope you had time to check out some
of the great Close Combat mods and our forums. I'd also like to thank
all the members of our volunteer staff that have helped over
the years, and all our users that contributed to this site!
