The result of the move request was: page moved. Consensus was to move. Having said that I think there are still a few issues with the name that may need discussing. Is it 'redoubt' or 'Redoubt'? Also should Antwerp be in the title rather then Belgium? If we retain Belgium in any further discussions, should its disambiguation match what is used for National Redoubt (Switzerland)?

National Reduit (Belgium) → National redoubt of Belgium – The term "national reduit" is awkward, especially when the French is the barely dissimilar and perfectly comprehensible réduit national. The term "national redoubt" is both more common and less awkward. Further, it appears that the term for the Belgian fortress is not really a proper noun: most books I can find on Google simply refer to the Belgian national redoubt, or the national redoubt of Boelgium, or the national redoubt in Antwerp, etc. (This article was originally titled Réduit national and was moved without a discussion.)
