  • ONE OF THE MOST SECRET INSTALLATIONS DURING WW2 IN GERMANY WAS THAT OF THE ENORMOUS ABOVE AND UNDERGROUND BUNKER COMPLEX BUILT TO HOUSE THE ARMY COMMAND. IT WAS BUILT TO DECEIVE IN A WAY NOT SEEN ANYWHERE ELSE.
    BESIDES TAKING YOU THROUGH THE COMPLEX AND TELLING ITS STORY. THE BEST PART FOR ME WAS SEARCHING THROUGH THE FORESTS OF ZOSSEN AROUND IT. THE WHOLE AREA HAVE BEEN A MILITARY AREA FOR 110 YEARS AND SO MUCH IS HIDING IN THE FORESTS INCLUDING MAYBACH II AND THE REMAINS OF 3 DIFFERENT ARMIES ENCAMPED THERE..
    MAKE SURE YOU WATCH MY NEXT Q&A I HAVE SOME INTERESTING UPDATES TO THIS STORY!!!

    One soldiers junk is another soldiers treasure :-) And great words of wisdom there too. We can't right a wrong when it comes to past wars. We can't make the past disappear if we cover up or tear down the memories. We can only learn thru instruction. We hold those in power accountable and we honor the individual soldiers that fought for their homeland. Friend or foe.

    As you walk various areas, I can't help notice all of the downed trees & stumps. There is a lot, "A LOT", of deadwood, bent trees, stumps, odd foliage. You mention areas of missing & thinned trees - several of the "trenches", ground depressions, have stumps in front of them. It takes a very long time for stumps to decompose to dust / soil, so I ask, "who cut all the wood in a now unvisited area, why was it cut, do the stumps reveal firing positions, cleared lines of fire?" Many of the areas look like they were covered by deadwood, expecting it to catch leaves & become forest floor, but it was done haphazard & is now just, deadwood. Germans are usually very good with forest management, this place is crap. My thoughts as an ex tree-climber, great series, thanks.

      @@tinostruckmann I have two uncles that fought against the Germans, in Germany (Canadian Armed Forces) in WWII. They saw some real terrible stuff. Including what was done to some of their fellow allied soldiers by the Germans. To the day they died they disliked anything German. Despite their atrocities, it really is amazing what the Germans did engineering wise during the war. Both in weapons/equipment, and structures/bunkers/infrastructure. It is scary to think, but if not for Hitler being out of it on drugs, out of his mind, and failing to follow his Generals recommendations towards the end of the war, there could have been a much different outcome. Except for their evil goals, the Germans were well organized, with excellent design and engineering, and brilliant execution. Just stretched far too thin as the war raged on, and resources were destroyed or used up.

    Without my idiot humor this is an interesting enough video for historians. It is very very difficult to gain access to this area let alone have a camera inside that area. Where he found the double trenches is the MayBach II area also call Machchinot area. Tino walks ahead of his car and says here was a structure. That was the guard post later built in front of Maybach II structures. That deep square ditch was a hand dug bunker made mostly of earth and wood for whatever reason that particular area was a hot spot for many many years because it was used as a communications post as well the reasons he found those old 6 volt batteries. Nobody has yet to show a complete map of the entire area and the tunnel systems. Mostly because it is such large area and not all the information is there so there may never be a complete map of the whole thing. When I was there was 1988 just after I got home from Panama hurt. I went there on a vacation with a NY Times researcher Tom Butterman and yes that is his real name. He worked off the expense of the vacation doing research on this subject for local newspapers in my area as a fact checker as well as him being a Nam era veteran. With todays new politics fact checkers are obsolete as me and Tom currently R... That Maybach II area was literally littered up with communications posts and soldiers at all times. It may lend credibility they had nuclear weapons or capabilities in that area. Tino is correct they had many natural springs they harnesses and funneled water down to the under ground bunkers as well. The other thing Tino has not mentioned up until the point I watched the video, Tino has not comment has not mentioned is there are over a 2,000 locals buried in mass graves about that area possibly more than that as well as soldiers. They buried alotta guys just about where they were killed at. At the time I was there in the 80's the thing with the Berlin Wall was still going on and there was a bunch of Greek historians studying the area as well as Journalists from abroad that had connections like Tom had.

    I sure enjoyed your walk which reminds me of my walks in Atwood Park which was formerly the rifle and artillery range at Camp Grant in Rockford Illinois. There are still some structures including trenches, trench bunkers and target pit.. I have been researching for about 15 yrs WWII German POW Camps in Northern Illinois and 6 yrs ago WWII German POW Camps in Southern Indiana. I now live by the old Jeffersonville Indiana Quartermaster Depot which also had a German POW branch camp of Fort Knox. Houses have been built where the Germans were housed but the area where the guards were quartered in is now part of a dog park. Back in the early 60's when I was a Boy Scout we slept in what had been one of the building the Germans lived in at Camp Pine in Des Plaines, IL. Camp Pine was a branch camp for Fort Sheridan. When I lived by Camp Grant I lived by 3 of Camp Grant's branch camps. One was in Kirkland, one in Sycamore and the other in Hampshire. A lot of people have no idea that during WWII German and Italian soldiers where held in the US. The next town east of me Charlestown the Germans help build the Indiana Army Ammunition Plant. You should do some videos about this part of WWII in the US.

    54:14 That's the rack harness for a vacuum tube/valve leveling amplifier that was used to prevent loud audio dynamics from damaging any speakers and other devices receiving the audio signal. They make quiet noises louder and loud noises quieter, basically squishing the audio so there aren't drastic peaks that will damage sensitive equipment. I still currently use the same type of leveling amplifier (also called a compressor) in my recording studio today, in fact I have several server racks full of them. I've pulled hundreds, if not thousands, of tubes/valves out of that exact style of military rack harness you found. (The tubes are worth a shitload of money, and the audio community has several common pieces of gear that require those tubes. People go ape-shit over vintage tubes. I prefer modern tubes personally.)
    Edit: The military typically would have used it for either an off compound broadcast or for an internal intercoms system. The ministry of propaganda would have also used them in their radio broadcasts. It was most likely made under licensing from either Neumann or Telefunken. Both of these two German companies were closely related to Hitler and the Nazi party as they were the preferred microphone and audio equipment manufacturers of Hitler. Neumann made several extremely specific mics just for Hitler's speeches, recordings, and his radio broadcasts. Both companies still make top level equipment to this very day. However Telefunken is no longer German as its trademark is currently owned and operated in the USA.

    You need to get yourself a "Pointer" which is a metal detecting fine location pointer, the tip points at the metal. Simple to use and easy to carry, you would be able to detect rebar and other metal a small distance underground or in rocks.

    I don ´t know if you have since discovered the real ruins of Maybach 2 but if you google earth the site you will see a road running from Maybach 1 towards Wundsdorf.After a short distance is a large solar panel field.On the opposite side from the road is Maybach 2.Not clear but when I went to that road I could see the top of a Maybach roof so there are more substantial ruins than you found.I never went in the woods you were in.You should have headed towards the far edge of the wood.Nice finds.

    I absolutely love the sections of you just wandering around, poking through a forest, having a bit of an adventure, etc. Just seeing what you can discover and learn from the remnants of the past now left.
    I also absolutely agree with your summarisation of why preserving things like this are important. No matter how painful the memories are. No whitewashing and trying to cover up history and disconnect yourself from it, that is exactly how you end up forgetting the lessons of the past and repeating the horrendous mistakes that people, many people, have died for and died fighting against in the past specifically so that we don't have to also live through it nowadays...and yet, people continue to try and hide the past. It's sad.

    • @tinostruckmann

    I didnt see an answer...but the ax head you found is a side ax. One side is flat. It's a rough carpenters ax good for making wood shingles.
    Thing is...these are common. Made all over western or european areas and a speciality tool.
    Like most things one finds from the past the more common the find the less common the usage. Stuff that's used gets used up.
    The russian trash dump looked like just that. A dump for miscellaneous trash.
    With proper signage for both military and native flora, as well as marked cleared paths this would be a nice place for a hike or bike.

      I don't quite think you grasp the situation at the forest - we are looking at a very large piece of property in where the Russians upon leaving dumped all their trash and everything they did not want. From old shows to apparently magazines. There are thousands or tons of waste there. And most of it will never be recovered and will simply rust and disintegrate there. None have any historic value or are sparse. Had it been a battlefield artifact that would have been a different matter. At least it is now safe, but as I cant drink from it I may gather a collection and give them to my friend and his museum out by Juterbug.
