Guided tour of World War II Fort d'Aubin

Local guide Fenton Wiffen led a private historical tour of the Fort'Aubin complex, Neufchateau, for Book Club members - William Bache, Heather Rhine, Trip DuBard, Philippe "Boz" Rogers, and Walter Benjamin. The Fort held out against overwhelming German forces during the first week of the 10 May 1940 invasion. After the visit, we travel west to the other side of the Meuse River to visit the Fortress complex of Eben-Emael, which fell to German glider troops within 12 hours. It is a very impressive underground site.
