This destroyed Sherman turret at the Bunker Assenois at Bastogne, the turret was one of a few placed at roads leading into Bastogne, these were place around Bastogne after the war, and all came from Sherman tanks found around Bastogne.
These Turrets would mark the frontlines during the Battle of the Bulge and would show how far
the Germans would have come.
Most of the turrets were removed over the years and relocated.

The Bunker Assenois is a pre-war Belgian Army bunker, that was the scene of the now famous breakthrough at Bastogne.
