#3 There are still a lot of bunkers waiting to be explored. I knew of one on a mountaintop US military base that had been sealed shut at the end of the war for fear of booby traps. They opened it up and discovered a long passageway to a heavily forested area on other side of the mountain where of all things, an unknown small airstrip had been built.

On that same base, the Rod and Gun Club had been put in a building that had been an arms room, but they never got around to inspecting the basement. Some bored GI noticed a small trap door in the back of the building, and discovered several boxes of machine guns down there, still in their dried packing grease.

But many of the larger and more concealed bunkers were taken over after the war by the Bundeswehr.
