funny how the person reporting the story says " Bunkers that the Nazi's built" when we all know to well who actually built those, well who provided the labor anyway. I say blow them up.

This is a bit old news. It was first reported in mid-June.

The interesting about this one is not the bunker itself, but that this one hadn't been stripped of all equipment. The Danish west-coast is still filled with hundreds of bunkers that you can enter, as only some of them were removed, because of the big work it would require to remove them all.

Just take a look in Google Earth and you can easily see many bunkers. http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=h&ll=55.56031,8.079135&spn=0.003289,0.007521&z=17

If you are implying that the bunkers were built with slave labor, you are incorrect, at least in Denmarks case.
The Germans here hired local contractors to build the bunkers.

ever heard of the commisar or severity orders given out by Hitler?


or how about the Einsatzgruppen?

it is well known that when the germans needed something built they forced jews and other conqured people into doing it for them no matter what theatre they were in, and it has been going on for century's like that with all races and still does today.

Nope.   None of what you "Assume" have a thing to do with these.    Keep googling.

thats the problem with 75% of the people on these boards, they think you have to prove something to them like they are so special. You just made it into the muslim folder, cuz they dont believe it happened either.

 None of them are related to specific purposes of producing slave labor. Both are largely irrelevant.

 The Einsatzgruppen did not work alone. Every 'branch' had its local collaborators, and in many places, voluntary cooperation did exist.

Reasonable, mature people who makes claims should be able to back them up when someone disputes those claims.   You made claims that are factual in some places and times.  In the case of these bunkers and many other German projects, hired contractors were used to build them.  Not everything was built using slave labor.

When people ask you for something to prove that what you say is factual, either provide it or drop the subject that you clearly know nothing about.

AFAIK the Germans would take what they would need if it suited them, be it animal fodder or...labour.
(I have gotten to know quite a few farming folks from Denmark, and they shae the tales of the food they used for cows, i.e. old newspapers and such because crops had been taken by the army).
Anyway, moving from Denmark to the Atlantic wall in France, - that one was mostly build on slave labour.
I hope this img uploads. Not much for the eye, some of them...:

Wow~ nice article.  Interesting the little dance that is done (seems to be well practiced) announcing fake information to prevent looters... who go & attempt looting regardless of the story.

Northern Europe's largest fortifications from WWII is on the same coastline and has been made into a museum - I visited it last week.

I live on the South coast of England, you can still see many bunkers and defensive positions this side of the Channel to.

Norway had quite a few as well.
When I was there back in 1989, there were zones still closed because of Landmines.
However expected to clear gradually due to the activity of wild pics. KABOOM-Squuueeeel
Lots of those as well on the old Siegfried line, looked at some near Saarbrucken some years back. Quite interesting. Those are however filling with soil, leaves and wildlife in general, so step down carefully....
