Oh lord, seeing a Burger King on the same street as a T34 is just surreal.

Be sure to click the "Previous 10" link at the bottom for more images.

I love these kinds of images, shows that the war wasn't worlds away but on the same streets you and I have walked many times.

Not that I've been to Russia / Germany, but still

Oh wow, this one's pretty powerful.

Yeah, it really brings home the impact WW2 had on so many, not so very long ago......

The story below that pic Murph posted is pretty interesting - if someone would translate it, that'd be great. If nobody feels like it, I could even give it a whirr.

Those are... incredible.

Really brings home the reality of it in a way I never really felt before.

Daggum.
