So, it might have been that Staffel. The photo shows a reasonably well camouflaged Gefechtsstand, to my eyes it just does not look like a temporary arrangement from May/June 1940.

It does look temporary with fresh cut pine trees? The Germans still do this and I see it regularly on the Truppenubungsplatz Bergen. Luckily they always win the war before the weekend and all of the commoflage trees are discarded pretty quickly. My point being they do this for a Monday to Friday war senario still today?
