[Jos L C]

Looks like nougat..,bad for the teeth..

I think concrete doesn't break this way..unless it was done with a saw.

On the 'Alter Friedhof' in Berchtesgaden lie a lot of young men (Gebirgsjaeger, Fallschirmjaeger, Wehrmacht and WOI soldiers). Boys of 16 year that died a socalled 'heroes dead' for their Fatherland. Helps to remind you how meaningless war is. Most of them don't even lie there but in the land where they died.
