Violent storm uncovers Nazi bunkers buried by sand for 63 years.

Three Nazi bunkers on a beach have been uncovered by violent storms off the Danish coast, providing a store of material for history buffs and military archaeologists.
The bunkers were found in practically the same condition as they were on the day the last Nazi soldiers left them, down to the tobacco in one trooper‘s pipe and a half-finished bottle of schnapps.
The bunkers were three of 7,000 built by the Germans as part of Hitler’s ‘Atlantic Wall‘ from Norway to the south of France.

I prefer a nice screwdriver (O.J. & vodka) --vitamin C with the cleanest of all liquors…

I know wine had been drunk that dated to the early 1700s after being recovered from a Dutch shipwreck. The wine smelled like sulfur, but was quite tasty…

Jacques Cousteau apparently tasted wine from an amphora salvaged from a Phoenecian shipwreck. He reputedly then spat it out with the words “that was a bad millenium” :wink:
