LACKIE14 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 heres a couple of shots from overloon, the museum itself is built on the actual battlefield, so you can still see the bunkers slit trenches and craters today. my sons thought this was boring until they found out that equipment and actual casualities were still being discovered on the site. it also helps that the kids can actually site on some of the equipment.
