1943This list is of all the WWII (or used during WWII) Fire Control Stations (FCS) in New England. Included here are Base-End Stations, Spotting Stations, and Group Observation Stations (Mines, Gun Groups, Groupement's). I have not decided to include Battery Commanders Stations or Command Posts unless it is a combined station. This table can be searched by using Control+F (PC) or Command+F (Mac) Please contact me with any questions or corrections.
