Bunquer a Bellvís / Bunker near Bellvís
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.
Al sud de Bellvís, defensant un ramal del Canal d'Urgell, es poden veure diversos bunquers d'ametralladores i refugis antiaeris. La majoria foren esbentrats a la postguerra, per recuperar-ne el ferro. Però ara fa poc han estat excavats i restaurats. Bona feina de recuperació del patrimoni historic!
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.

===============================================
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.
South of the village of Bellvís, several MG bunkers and air shelters served as a boosted defense of an irrigation canal. Most of them were blown up after the war to recover the iron, but now the remnants have been preserved.
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.
