fordmustanggt_350 Posted December 14, 2020 Share #1 Posted December 14, 2020 So I visited Trois Pont a number of years ago and had a friend show me specific places relevant to the battle. One was where the 51st Engineers made a stand with a 57mm gun outside Trois Pont. When we were there he showed me the spot where this supposedly happened. I took pictures of the building next to where the gun had stood. Either way I know the house is near Trois Ponts (below) as there is a sign in the background. I can not find it on google maps. Is anyone familiar where this building is? Is it still standing? Thank you for any assistance you can provide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherman1981 Posted December 17, 2020 Share #2 Posted December 17, 2020 Hi Kevin, I think I found the spot although the house is gone: coordinates 50°22'34.1"N 5°52'35.2"E (or 50.376139, 5.876444) Regards, Herman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmustanggt_350 Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted December 17, 2020 Herman, That's great than you! You definitely have eagle eyes! Thank you! I was hoping I was wrong and the building was still there. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Persian Gulf Command Posted January 2, 2021 Share #4 Posted January 2, 2021 Here are some close ups of the area from my original GSGS 4040 maps. The black squares indicate buildings. Perhaps this can help you with your search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
