Years ago I went to Kharkov.. Really nothing there, wilderness where we were. My wifes cousins were metal detecting and looking for depressions in the fields [usually old bunkers underneath!].. They found a lot in the early days and sent many a grided map to Germany's war graves agency so family would know where their relatives had fallen. This was done thru the dog tags found.....


,Warsaw.. Most of that whole city was a battlefield many times during the war.. Fantastic place to visit. Mostly modern now but there is 'Old Town' and it still has portions of the Ghetto wall standing,,buildings rebuilt to exact specs,,a great WW1 memorial..
Many spots along the streets with metal placks describing about the war with 'Hitlerism' and what went on at that spot. And to top it off the absolute best Warsaw Rebellion museum!, great modern made displays and items to see.
Great people, great food.. Seems like history everywhere you look and you can still get lucky with a small collectible if your smart!
