ID Location of Photos in France 1940

[i.spring]

Hi guys.
I got this nice lot of negatives and one of them shows a road sign with the name chalons sur marne.
I was wondering if any other members are from this part of France and could maybe ID some of the locations in the pictures please.
Many thanks in advance.
Ian

Photo 5 is a Stalin Line blockhouse somewhere in Russia. I doubt photos 2 and 3 are France. Those types of antitank obstacles were used in Czechoslovakia and later along the Westwall. Perhaps those two photos were taken in the winter of 39-40 along Germany's western border.
