Although it wouldn't have withstood a direct hit, they did reinforce the ceiling of the bunker. The pinholes are the remenants of the movement of ships and convoys. Just amazing to see. Someone put their sugar ration in an envelope and forgot about it - it was rediscovered when the bunker was reopened!
