Entre camps d'Albatarrec / A bunker in Albatarrec

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

 

Al estiu i tardor del 1938, les forces republicanes feren una considerable i totalment desaprofitada tasca de fortificació de la reraguarda del front del Segre. Es planificaren 6 linies de defensa, però només es completaren parcialment la L1 i la L2.

 

A les afores d'Albatarrec, al sud de Lleida, es troba aquest bunker circular, situat entre camps de fruiters. Deuria formar part de la linea L1, ja que només està a uns pocs quilometres del Segre, on hi havia el front.

 

Foto presa amb una Graflex Anniversary Speed Graphic de la USAAF (Ground Camera C-3), fabricada el 1944 i que potser serví amb les unitats aeries americanes a Europa o el Pacific; objectiu Kodak Ektar f4.7 127mm fabricat el 1941; pelicula Ilford FP4+ 125, revelada amb HC110.

 

Com podeu veure aquí, no és l'únic bunquer del terme d'Albatarrec, però potser sí el més facilment visitable.

===============================================

 

In the summer and autumn of 1938, during the spanish Civil War, the Republican forces made a considerable and totally misused task of fortification of the rearguard areas of the Segre front. Six lines of defense were planned, but only the L1 and L2 were partially completed.

 

This round bunker stands today at the outskirts of Albatarrec, south of Lleida, and located just a few km. behind the front, in the river Segre.

 

Picture taken with a Graflex Anniversary Speed Graphic used by the USAAF (Ground Camera C-3), produced in 1944 and which perhaps served with American air units in Europe or the Pacific; Kodak Ektar f4.7 127mm lens, made in 1941; Ilford FP4 125 film, developed with HC110.
