Cool

Can anyone provide me links to sites about WW2 battlefields today?

I find it really interesting to compare pictures of ww2 battlefields to how they look today.

i tried that already, but mostly battlefield tourism sites popped up.

So i figured i'd see if some of the members here knew of some sites.

If any of you are interested, a good one i knew about before posting is http://www.thirdreichruins.com/
