Thanks for posting.......I am always amazed at the route that was occurring at the end of WWII in Germany. The German soldier was simply exhausted and out matched by what confronted him and the destruction in some cases were complete--it's sad. That was a camp which was well appointed with tanks, flak wagons, APC's, armed half-tracks, and infantry, it's amazing that a force overtook them in that forest as if they didn't have any will to fight or live......sad. It's almost like the place was hit by a Neutron bomb or something, war is an dark uncanny thing, hard to imagine all this. Thanks for posting.....
