Modern/Post-War Photos

The minefield "Wilde Sau" (wild boar) in Hurtgenforest, photo taken on January 16, 1948. Still only the road itself is passable. In the foreground the wreck of an american vehicle - most probably a cargo carrier M29 "Weasel". By the time the photo was taken the body of the driver was still inside the wreck, it was simply too dangerous to salvage him.
