They are definitely not historic, in fact, they are a nature reserve and 
are protected now, so it would not be appropriate since there is no real 
historic value, the story about those craters is explained at the 
entrance of the reserve I think to remember.  But that's all there is to 
it.

I did seem to think I saw most bunkers being marked correctly, so 
without battlefield tag.  But I didn't check with JOSM directly. Just 
marking it as a bunker is fine but the battlefield tag is most probably 
overkill.
