Where I live, there are a lot of bomb craters in the woods just outside of town from the allied bombings in WWII. Whenever I take a walk in the woods it makes me think about what horrors went down this very place I‘m walking by, about 80 years ago. And now there are those craters left, in the peaceful woods, with birds chirping and nature turning quite a few of the craters into small ponds for animals to live. The scars of the horrors of the past are claimed for the peace of nature. It never ceases to amaze me.

Berlin is a very unique city, being divided after the war. What became West Berlin was basically torn down and rebuilt, all the battle damage is almost all gone or hard to find. East Berlin was a totally different story. If the structures were still standing and sound, basically nothing was done. I was stationed West Berlin in the early 70’s.

@@mikes1798 , during my tour, we ended up near the Czech border. On a Friday evening, the locals stood in line awaiting their turn to go into the local butcher shop, in order to get their weekly meat rations... equal to approximately 5 pounds per family of 4. Also, those who had TVs had to share their tvs during government broadcast, as there was believed to have been 1 appliance for every 5 families, during a time when state laws forbade the gathering of more than a handful of citizens in any location, due to fears of planning escapes. On the wall, they had guard towers, which were approximately 100 feet apart, and occupied by 2 Soviet soldiers, of which neither knew each other, and during their tours, their families were relocated to enclaves, in order that the guards thought twice about their own escapes.. both guards were warned that if the other attempted escape, they and their families could face a Court Martial with severe consequences.

Next to the Deutsche Technische museum, there are alot of railways magazine buildings, but only about 2/3rds of them have been restored and cleared or were unharmed in the war. Still to this day, it was fenced off, due to being uncleared of war debris, at least when I visited Berlin in 2016. It was pretty cool to see, that this is the exact same, untouched devestation that Berliners saw back then, and this is just still there, 71 years later

I lived in the American Sector from December of 1961 to June of 1962 in West Berlin (but never encountered any other Americans while there). My sister and I would walk past a small church reduced to rubble on our way to a square to pick up a double-decker bus ~ that brought us to an American bus, that took us on the Air Base for school. There was a plaque commemorating it. I can't recall much about the plaque, except something about the church being destroyed by Allied bombers in WW II. It was not the Kaiser-Wilhelm church, however, which was much larger ~ and mostly still intact.

Couldn't imagine what that would be like. Not all glory , more like death and gloom as people were dying everywhere around.

Escombros apilados cerca de casas y estas mucho más castigadas y rehabilitadas en el lado occidental También estuve en el único búnker antiaéreo gigante que quedaba Con muros de 6 de hormigón Y los proyectiles más potentes,solo habían dejado una marca Era impresionante

The chips and holes in bricks, stone and steel are unquestionably from weapons. I'm doubtful about the hole in the sidewalk stone block, however, for several reasons. First, sidewalks and streets undergo constant use and need to be repaired and resurfaced regularly, unlike the walls of buildings. Second, I'm sure the bombs were larger than the hole, and a non-functioning bomb would therefore have caused more damage than is seen here.

@@nassermj7671 Thats great that you will visit Berlin, I can honestly say the best way to get around is on a cycle I always rent one from Take a Bike, near Friedrichstrasse train station they are very good and a weekly rate is 8 euro per day, single days about 12 euro this is how I get to all the locations in the video.

It is also the graves of nazi resistance fighters who where murdered several days before the fall of Berlin. I just happen on it and was very special surprise. The image of Martin Luther with Bible in hand with the image of a classical tomb full of gun fire.

Hallo, du hast die Wohnhäuser an der Grellstr. zwichen Greifswalder Str. und Prenzlauer Allee nicht erwähnt. Vieles ist da renoviert, aber es sind noch Spuren zu sehen. Die ganzen Wohnzüge wurden beschossen. Gruß aus PrenzBerg.

Da fallen mir dezent noch zwei Orte ein. Die Eisenbahnbrücken über der Yorckstraße. Da kann man noch gut sehen. Oder in meiner Ecke. Alt Friedrichsfelde. Über der Straße geht auch eine Eisenbahnbrücke entlang, wo die Mauern gut durchsiebt wurden. Damals in der Ruschestr. Lichtenberg. Konnte man entlang der Straße, sämtliche Einschläge in den Häuserwänden sehen. Leider wurden die Gebäuden vor vielen Jahren Gedämmt. So das man es nicht mehr sieht. In Grunde genommen. Wenn man durch ganz Berlin geht, sieht man wirklich hier und da ein paar Stellen.

Germany won the war in late 1942. There was nothing Stalin could do to dislodge army group north from besieging Leningrad, absolutely nothing against army group center only 200 miles from Moscow….Ukraine was firmly under Axis control, Stalingrad the last arterial hub of the USSR was lost to Germany and the main arterial supply line of the USSR (the Volga River) was cut off. Stalin needed a miracle… Rommel was on his way to Egypt. U boats were devastating allied shipping in the Atlantic. Anglo Saxons kicked out of mainland Europe. Zionist regimes and Zionist propaganda no more. Peace for humanity
