"Do you know the world ?" -- Competition --


Recommended Posts

I found this picture on the internet - according to the text that accompanied it, it is a US structure on the road from Danang to the coast. Didn't Rob guess that already?

Ive been googling the Vietnam coast since the 21st. Ive not been there so I can only take a stab at the highway outside DaNang. The pillbox does look french.

 

You've got it! This is the coast road between Danang and Hue. Picture taken at the highest point, where you could cover both north and south directions. Beautiful drive these days, though very susceptible to ambush during the Vietnam War.

 

Over to you, Rob.

Well you out googled me Frans. I did look hard but could never find the image to confirm.

American? I would have figured they were French, you see a few of them around in Vietnam and Laos particularly where the french had their backs up. You know the old joke. Legacy of french colonialism, brothels, prisons and pillboxes:p.
