My brothers and i found a intact bunker much, much larger, with long arched hallways throughout while hiking in the forest and cliffs near Irrel, Germany along the former WW1 Siegfried Line...we were in our teens around 1966. We found many incredible artifacts of the wars. If only id have realized the magnitude of what we found living in Irrel. Its entrance was blown up , but opened up into a labyrith of dozens of large ventilated rooms in very untidy condition. But all perfect. Papers with swastikas, books, furniture everywhere. It seems to have been untouched but hastily evacuated.

I can see why some people want to document and map out old WW2 bunkers and then bury them again. WW2 was a terrible war. It is one thing for an American like me to think a WW2 bunker should be used in the present. But in Europe the soil around the bunkers hosted brutal battles in the past. Lives were lost. People were injured. I can see why some people want to cover those painful reminders of the past up.

Outside of Augsburg, Germany there is an old airbase that is now a US Army base. I don't remember the exact name anymore, we just called it Field Station Augsburg. I was stationed there in the 1980s. It was said that it is the base Rudolph Hess took off from when he flew to England. When I was there, the old German buildings were still standing and I explored them extensively. There was a bowling alley, barracks, motor pool, jail, offices, etc but what really got my attention was the kitchen. Under the kitchen was a large cellar and in that cellar was a rather large dumbwaiter with armored steel doors. I never found where the dumbwaiter went up to the kitchen because it didn't. It went down! The doors had been welded shut but I could shine a light through the crack and see that it went down. As far as my light went I could not see any bottom or water. Rumor had it that there was a large underground hanger and storage complex under the base and that the US Army sealed it up because they were afraid it was booby trapped. The year I left in 1983 they bulldozed the entire facility but whatever is down there is still there. There may be other entrances, I don't know. I would have loved to see what was down there.

​@@Me-yh4uc I live in Ftance and we visited 120+ bunkers North/NW of the country : we only found ONE un-touched bunker : was around Lorient : authorities decided to block the entrance and let it "as it was" because it had been seriously damaged by allies in late 44 when they besieged the U-boats base at keroman. We managed to access it, using metal detectors inside to spot any booby-traps. We found ammo (7.92 mostly + some 9mm), we also found 4 helmets, French 40's money and one nade. Documents also, but too damaged to read. Best thing was an insigna on a door, with a German eagle+ Swastika bearing the Todt organisation markings.

It was like a time capsule, weapons and uniforms were discovered. Even a German helmet with blood stains in the temple area were found.

After a lot of digging and scraping around I found it. Not in the best shape but still recognizable and fascinating. I checked in at the library to find diaries of the bombings, and from that could pinpoint the dates that the family living there at the time would have spent in the shelter.

Rumor was at Daley barracks, there was a huge parking storage under ground, the post Engineers had to replace a major water line while walking of chow Hall, you could look down where the pipe was being replace, there was a huge Cavern right under the parade field. I seen a vehicle that was parked there, had to been 20 feet down, at least 8 feet of solid concrete, for the ceiling.

WW2RevivalDenmark in 1975 I was 19 years old private, in US Army, stationed in West Germany on the Czechoslovakian border. Cold war was in full effect, the DMZ in Korea was red hot, your life expectancy on either border was 6 sec, many soldiers would not take 30 day leave because they would never come back! From Moment One to the very last day, you heard the word reverberate from Tac site to the Rear, short, !short !short.! Somebody would call back How short are you ? Return reply would be, "I'm a two-digit midget, I'm so short I could do a double Gander off the side of a dime,"" I'm so short I could crawl under a snake and never touch his belly" ect ect all day long, and if you look at them, they would yell out PRIVATE!!! how many days you got? you would reply 1090 days and counting, and they would be busting up laughing, End of month pay days, paid in the field, when we were in a hot status State 5 or 3 Gi,s would bring out the Monopoly board, each and every one of us who bought into the game was $50 a person that went into the center of the board, normally you could get 3-4 guys to put in fifty bucks a piece, back your game piece on the Monopoly board such as the shoe the dog the iron, horse. I have seen eight guys, put up $400 total and sometimes even more! To see if you could win the game every luxury tax 10% of $75 goes in the middle of the board, if you pull the orange or yellow card from chance or community you had to pay 10% if you had to pay Hotel assessment it was 10% whatever play money mounted up to, if you landed on somebody's house or their Motel 10% in the kitty, I forget how many game pieces there were, but I seen $3,000.00 in the middle of the board before the dice was ever rolled one time. Especially when you only made $310 a month, that was some Bookoo money, 4 hours later there might be $7,000.00 to$ 8000.00 stacked and rubber bands in the middle of that board, tension was so thick you could have cut it with a knife, you got to remember that this is 1975 these are all Vietnam veterans, crazier than a Cage rats, we had this first lieutenant he was a West Point graduate, went in the TOC office, came back with a 45 slammed the clip,in too the well, pulled back the slide locked and loaded one round and pointed at us 30 guys at the Monopoly board he said" I'll kill every damn one of you, if there's $1 missing, I've got to run out to the BCC, confirm integration with Battion, take a break and place I'll be gone 10 minutes." You could see a pin levitating in the air,🤣🤣🤣🤣.

Going through the front gate, 1600 feet 500 M it'll be 11:30 position parade field It was only by chance that the I seen this Cavern at the right time at the right place going up to eat some nasty ass Chow.

Hello WW2RD, can you explain the purpose of this bunker please? Seems like a huge effort in order to give 10 guys protection from bombardment, but to what end? They lock themselves inside if attacked and ….and.... - what's the point? A little gas or even water into the ventilation system and they would have to surrender. Or (perish the thought) bury the entrances. Was it part of a system to direct aircraft or a ranging system for artillery? I don't get the strategy. Thanks.

My father was in the western theater and When the war ended he was fighting in Belgium (the Bulge). He survived a land mine injury after it ended. He was hitching a ride in an ambulance. I was born in 1950 and so many men from every city were in combat. My father, like most, hated the Japanese because of their torture and cruelty. But, he, like most, had admiration for the German solders. I had a difficult time understanding that when I was ten years old. These men admired the German solders skills, bravery and how well they took orders. And their captives did not receive the torture or death of the Japanese. I know that my father was fighting for his life and took the lives of others. It bothered him to his grave. The German solders that occupied these bunkers were doing their job. Just like my father. Yes, this place and so many are hallowed grounds. Every bullet rips open the heart of a mother somewhere. If we could only learn from our history.
