    A little more for fuel. Thank you so much for sharing that very interesting fortified German island fortress. We wouldn't be able to see these historical WW2 sites without you. Yes, always a shame when the grafitti monsters decide to do their handiwork. The best WW2 historical CZcams channel hands down. Thank you HH & EE. Keep smiling and stay safe. 💞

    My grandfather fought for the British army in the Second World War in Chattogram against the imperial Japanese army. Nowadays we are an independent country named Bangladesh there are two World War massive graveyards in Chittagong ( Chattogram ) & Comilla. It's a dream for my life to visit all those historical places of World War 2 ❤

    Oh this one has so much to take in - fantastic! Not quite finished the video yet, but I did want to start typing before I forget my thoughts lol.
    First is that I am so grateful to you for uncovering the otherwise lost or neglected places in which World War II was engaged. Thanks to you we get to see these areas and objects before the disappear completely.
    And... I had a thought that the scrap heap in that room in the larger bunker might have been a collection point for the scrap metal taken from the rest of the bunker after the war, but for some reason never taken away. I can't identify any of the pieces besides the barbed wire, but I haven't finished that part of the video yet. Very, very intriguing!
    Going further in the video, it becomes clear that they expended quite a few resources on this location, so it must have had a very important role, even outside of the island itself perhaps. That is an extremely high-tech installation for its time.
    Thank you all again!

    • @WW2HistoryHunter

    If I was with you I would be wanting to take a shovel and dig up the openings that were covered with sand. You have to wonder if there is anything inside the closed off bunkers. It was nice to see inside the bunkers that were open. The last one was pretty big. Can’t wait to see what else you have found on this trip.

    The Control Bunker was humongous. Wouldn't it have been something if all electronics and other equipment were still inside. It was rare to see tile on the floor. The V858C MG bunker looked like it served its purpose. Thanks for also taking us inside the L411 Regelbau. They sure cleaned everything out of that one also. I guess at least the metal was recylced. Extremely interesting German AW Island fortification . Thanks, EE and HH. ❤❤

It was in pretty good shape with the exception of some graffiti bandits! The two story gigantic bunker was another amazing piece of engineering, the thing was just enormous! All the scrap and wiring in that one room was an unusual find! Another interesting tour and history lesson! Thanks for taking us along. Stay safe and stay well!

    Shame those earlier bunkers were buried in the sand, but, at least, they've been saved from the graffiti monsters. That radar command bunker was truly fascinating, especially seeing those two entrances with all those cable holes running through the walls. That was something truly amazing to see. The workmanship in these bunkers is always stunning to see. That first room, with all the scrap inside was also fascinating. Obviously left since the initial post-war clean up. I wonder if all that was what was left of a Freya radar's framework? Crushed and rolled up, and dumped in the bunker, and left to rot, along with the barbed wire rolls? Probably deemed worthless to the scrap merchants of the time. Love these little mysteries, they always get the imagination going. Thank you guys, for sharing this amazing place with us. Cannot wait to see what else you uncover in the place! Cheers to you both!

    The German engineering is absolutely amazing. Think about all the construction projects performed by the Germans over a relatively short period of time and the scale of what was accomplished. I am always surprised to see what was done in even very remote locations. Sadly there is a very dark side regarding the people forced to construct these structures. Thankfully we have the History Hunter Family keeping this history alive is it is never forgotten. Thank you for all you do to show us these amazing locations. Blessings from Mike ^ Matthew.

    The most amazing thing is the huge amount of civil and military constructions carried out during these twelve years 1933 to 1945. Huge concrete fortifications, bunkers, large buildings, military bases, factories and plants producing air planes, battle tanks, war ships etc. that would take a minimum of fifty years for modern govts. to accomplish.
