    For those wondering, the body on the thumbnail is of a dead sailor who was part of the franklin expedition in 1845. Long story short, 120 men lost their lives in the Canadian arctic.

    I think it's a shame that the decision was made to destroy Hitler's bunker. It was a historical monument to the fall of the Third Reich. Today, seeing those underground rooms in the center of Berlin would be a first-class tourist attraction.

    Back in the late 70s I worked in London with a chap who did his national service at R.A.F. Maston in Kent. He told me that, in the 50s, they buried Spitfires in a quarry there. Lots of legends of buried Spitfires around.

    U505 sits in the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. I saw it 40 years ago, and again 2 weeks ago in its new “wing” in the museum. Priceless. You can still see the shelling it took from the American ships. It is open to take the tour inside of the sun as well. Excellent job by the museum to surround it with the entire story and all the facts of the events and of that time in history.

    Did they find the USS Hammann next to the Yorktown? It was a fletcher class destroyer that was tied up to the Yorktown trying to put out her fires during Midway battle when Hammann was cut in two by a japanese torpedo. Went down with all hands, or nearly all hands. I built a model of the Hammann and read its story on the box.

    I visited the Uboat in Chicago. Not noted here, it wasn’t brought in by train because of its giant size, but rather floated up river and across the Great Lakes and planted on the shore next to the Field Museum. It was outdoors at the time of my visit, about 1997. Apparently they built it a nice home and shined it up.

    Btw the US Forces stole tons of art and items as well. It’s a dark part of the war. There were many. It was t systematic like what the Nazis did but US serviceman could mail back almost anything free of charge. It’s well known that many trophies of war were mailed home in this way. Firearms. Weapons. Artwork. Gold. Silver and so much more was stolen and sent home. It’s good that at least wars these days are a little better at not allowing this to happen on such a large scale. It’s such a horrible shame that war is still happening constantly. Just never ending humans destroying others.

    Of course, while 114 German sailors survived the sinking of the Bismarck, only 3 English sailors survived the sinking of the HMS Hood. I guess it's because the Hood sank incredibly fast. Hard to tell, although I am quite sure there are hundreds of lengthy scientific and naval historian treatises on the subject.
    I always thought that the Amber Room was packed poorly and it stuck to itself and when some people found the walls stuck to each other and crates, the Allies who probably saw no problem with bombing monasteries in Italy, saw no reason to preserve the Amber Room, if they even knew what the hell they were.

I think Bonnie and Clyde stole three of them from the military armory where they keep the guns and ammunition.. after they shot them both at the back of the car the only thing you saw was shotguns and handguns I always wondered what happened to them 3-BAR'S..🤔

    It just occured to me how religious the people of the early 20th century were. Do grave robing war dead was to say the least deadth by fiering squad. So if hiter,or himler had lots of steal, lead lined coffin houliwed out during production the 3rd rick could have poured liquid gold, or maybe fine poudered gold, sliver,platinum into the cavities. Possibly the lides were pur gold. The bottom of the casket could have cash,or dimonds,and gems. So the natzi could rest in his native earth plounder gold from peoples teeth. For eternity, or untill the rick dug up the graves.
