Tomezzoli Etno-Archaeological Observatory, Munich, Germany Abstract A first visit on the site of the WWII German W/T station at Mont Saint-Michel de Brasparts (Brittany-FR), cover name Be-2, indicated sometime as either B 2 or B2, on 21 st December 2009 allowed the identification of many compo- nents and to evaluate their preservation state. The secret Interpretation Re- port NO. G.590 of the No. 80 Wing RAF of 6 th October 1942, dedicated to Be-2, mentioned a cable trench and a short mast may be for calibration pur- poses, not identified during the first visit, motivated the further visits on 13 th - 14 th May 2017 for searching their possible vestiges. This article presents the vestiges discovered, the feature of the mast and the reconstruction of Be-2.

Introduction The WWII German W/T (Wireless/Transmission) station Be-2, indicated some- time as either B 2 or B2, at Mont Saint-Michel de Brasparts (Finistère-FR), was provided with an antenna Telefunken FuSan 724/725 Bernard for driving Luft- waffe bombardiers on their targets on Great Britain. The interest for this sophis- ticated and technologically advanced W/T station motivated a first visit for iden- tifying the Be-2 surviving components and determining their preservation state. 2. First Be-2 Visit The first visit of the Be-2 site (Figure 1) took place on 21 st December 2009, fol- lowing a suggestion of prof. Mevel of the Rennes University after a visit of the WWII German radar camp of Monterfil (Dupont et al., 2007), and permitted to identify the following Be-2 components (Tomezzoli & Dupont, 2011).
