Y-29 advanced foward airbase, Asch Belgium

Hello all,

I was wondering if there are any AERIAL fotos of Y-29, if so, could somebody kindly post a copy. I'm curious to know if Y-29 utilized
WWI style trenches either along the side of the PSP runway, and/or in other areas of Y-29. Also wondering on total # of AAA units surrounding the base.

Thank you in advance.

Oberst,

In the online book "Bodenplatte. The Luftwaffe's Last Hope" it says that Y-29 was protected by B and D Bty of the 784th AAA AW Battalion, occupying five positions.

Regards,
