Military / Defense | | German term or phrase: Geschossstellung | "Jetzt abschließend noch ausstehend ist die Untersuchung von zwei Flächen in der Nähe der heutigen Pipelinetrasse, auf der ehemals Geschossstellungen aufgebaut waren."
Ich verstehe den Sinn, finde aber den richtigen Ausdruck nicht. Es geht um die Kampfmittelfreiheit. Kann jemand mir helfen? |
