12. Instructions – Chemicals

Bombs were not the only fear. During World War II, the fear of chemical warfare became increasingly real.

The soldiers in the bunkers of the Houvig fortress were also preparing for the worst.

This instruction with the heading: "Die chemischen Kampfstoffe" (The chemical warfare agents) is from the post in Houvig.
