When I was attending high school in Frankfurt I explored the remains of Hitler's bunker complex "Adlerhorst" a number of times. Once, I found an porcelainized steel sign fastened to a wall. I "liberated" that sign and discovered that it was a description of how to operate and service the gas tight air ventilation system.

While on the subject of St. Nazaire, I recommend watching the excellent video created by Jeremy Clark about the commando raid on the drydock that would have been necessary to repair the Tirpitz if it had been damaged in the Atlantic. A photo of the lock is attached.
