Zona de foc de la L2 / Great line of fire
IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE
Foto presa amb una KMZ FT-2 soviètica, fabricada el 1965; Kodak Ektar 100, revelat a casa amb el kit C-41 d'Adox.
Vista d'una fortificació de la guerra civil perduda dalt d'un serrat a la Segarra, formant part de la Linea L-2 de defensa de Catalunya, construida el 1938.
Aquest bunquer en concret es troba a La Pleta de Foguet, just sobre un cingle que domina perfectament el Torrent de Vilagrasseta i el camí que porta de Verdú a Granyella de Segarra. Es tracta del tipic niu d'ametralladores circular, però en aquest cas també compta amb trinxeres de pedra cap a la reraguarda. La part frontal sembla haber rebut danys, potser en combat (tot i que tota la Linea L2 caigué sense gaire esforç), o potser a la postguerra, intentant recuperar el ferro de l'estructura.

=================================================
Panoramic picture taken with a Soviet KMZ FT-2 camera, made in 1965; Kodak Ektar 100 film, home developed with the C-41 Adox kit.
View of a spanish civil war fortification in L'Ametlla de Segarra, part of the L-2 Line of defense of Catalonia, built in 1938.
This particular bunker is located in La Pleta de Foguet, right on a cliff that perfectly overlooks the Torrent de Vilagrasseta and the road that leads from Verdú to Granyella de Segarra. It is the typical round concrete machine gun nest, but in this case it also has stone-lined trenches towards the rear. The front part seems to have been damaged, perhaps in combat (although the entire Linea L2 fell without much effort), or perhaps in the post-war period, by scavengers trying to recover the iron of the structure (but then, they would have damaged the much more accessible rear!).
