I assume you mean these? They are called Tetrapods and were developed in the early 1950s by a French company. Only 5 years or so after WW2. I would assume that the Seabees would have used some kind of pre-fabricated coastal armour similar as this.

Well the fact that they are in the game doesnt change my way of playing. I can live with them. I didnt even notice them until I saw your post. I dont hang around the harbour much. :lol:
