I have broken pieces of cement at the Rally Grounds in Nurnburg, a broken piece of the barracks from the barracks at Birkenau, a broken piece of a Nazi Thingstatte in Heidelberg, a broken piece of cement from the outside of the crematorium at Dachau.
That's weird.

I got a piece of a concrete fence post at Dachau last Friday. Seriously.

I was at Nurenberg Thursday, they were setting up a road race around the Nazi Rally site there. I have a marble facade sample from one of the out buildings at the parade grounds.

I also have concrete samples from the Atlantic Wall fortifications in France and several of the Maginot Line structures.

My best prize is an original piece of mortar from the Roman Coliseum in Trier.

Nazi Thingstatte

Most folks in Amerika don't know what these were.

They were outdoor arenas the Nazis built as a forum to show their Germanic myths.

I have a sword from WWI that has been passed down to me, and a bunch of things from my grandpa that was in WW2. I was going through his soldier handbook the other day.
