Summary

| Description |
In the shadow of Mount Longdon, I have called this a sniper position for a number of reasons: 1. It is very well concealed and could only likely protect a single man. 2. The arc of fire from the rear opening does not appear to cover anywhere of tactical importance. 3. A small opening to the front, or closed end) is in the direction of Wireless Ridge and Moody Brook, and the open ground. The iconic image of Marines walking along the track flying the Union Flag was taken in that valley, just over 1km away. They would have been vulnerable to fire from this position. |
