Then and now... the recalls are clear. Do you know the Azov battalion (now regiment)? Let's comment... DVX

Modern "Nazi" battalion?

Today a RAF 1000 pounder was found during excavation work at Leuven(Belgium) near the railyards.Dovo(our Belgian deminers) made it save for transport by taking out the fuses.Some 300 folks were temporary evacuated and road and rail traffic was stopped for a while.All was safe after some 15' work by Dovo guys.
In the run up for the 1944 Normandy landings,the railyards and workshops at Leuven were bombed several times.Since the yards and station lie +- 1km from the city centre it's easy to understand that collateral damage at the time was severe.The maire said that in future more unexploded bombs can be expected during works.
