My apologies for the severe editing of this article...this was done in order to remain in compliance with Free Republic posting rules pertaining to articles from the UK's Daily Mail. AFP is also carrying the story, but apparently they require editing as well
AFP Furnished Nazi bunkers surface in Denmark, 60 years on
Also, at least some of the accompanying photos are Getty images, so that's the reason why I didn't post any pictures either :-(
Despite the sparse nature of this post, I'm hoping that military history enthusiasts might enjoy going to the links to learn more about this impressive find.

Sorry about the sparse post, but this story is still fairly new and so perhaps in a day or two it will be carried by another source :-)

tobacco in one trooper‘s pipe and a half-finished bottle of schnapps. Bet the time in a Bunker in Denmark was quite boring.

Informed the authorities?
I’d rent a moving van and inform ebay.

Interesting. Thanks, Stoat.
That's sure one way for a German soldier to survive the war. Sipping schnapps and puffing cigs on the beach in Denmark.

You don’t need to apologize man... everyone knows the score with copywrite, and if there is a clown who wrote the piece, any intellect will realize it when they go read the source article.
