This is a section of Hitlers much vanted Atlantic Wall removed from the beaches of Normandy by the French Goverment and shipped to the WW2 Museum in New Orleans for display.

The museum was quick to point out the bullet and schrapnel damage to the wall, but what I found intresting was the boot prints on top of the wall left by some worker of the Todt Originazation during it's construction.

Strange how little things like this add to the walls history, or if the person who left these prints even survived the war.

If it was a Todt organization workers prints I reckon his chances of survival would have been slim.
