Remnants of World War II are in places you would never expect.  I found this while researching the Nazi Forestry Service.

"Over 20 years ago, a landscaper in eastern Germany discovered a formation of trees in a forest in the shape of a swastika. Since then, a number of other forest swastikas have been found in Germany and beyond, but the mystery of their origins persist."

My first thought was "Photoshop" but then I read the article - unbelievable. Never have heard of them over here.

I didn't quite believe it at first either, but the article seems believable.

Yep, found several old articles about it when doing an online research.

Now we just need users to post their nazi forestry cutlasses and daggers to compliment this thread.
