Zd073. Moving west along the Nimitz Beach area, the first pillbox is in sight. One of 12 images of the Nimitz Beach in the former Naval Air Station Barbers Point, from the entrance, moving west, up to the first WWII Beach Defense Pillbox. One or more images are of the new solar panel field across the Coral Sea Road from the beach entrance. The beach is closed because of the Red China Virus but surfing and walking is ok!
