Stele text:
Fifty or so people trapped in this blockhaus on August 4, 1944 and threatened with asphyxiation owed their salvation only to the initiative and courage of a 17-year-old Quimper local, Charlot JACOB, who slipped through a narrow loophole to a door he was able to open allowing air to flow in.
