Into the Woods with the VBGO: Unearthing Remains of German Soldiers from WW2

Remains of German World War 2 casualties are found in German woods. WARNING: Explicit Content!

In November 2019, the VBGO conducted a search for missing soldiers in a woods in the Saar-Moselle Triangle. The VBGO does searches like these frequently, als there are still many soldiers who were missing in action after the fighting in late 1944 and in 1945, or who were buried in makeshift graves in the woods, alongside roads, and in fields. In the past decades, through archival research and research in situ, the VBGO was able to give many servicemen a decent burial. Be advised: in this video, unearthed human skeletal remains are explicitly shown.
