Hi Fortravel,

I don't want to sound too critical but the rules set by the New Zealand government website when posting these pictures appear to be quite strict and require at least to add a mandatory caption and credit.

I posted the link to these pictures on January 13, 2013 here :
http://natlib.govt.nz/thumbnails/?resiz ... DIE1255257

I did not post the pictures directly but when one does, here are the rules

I guess this website "forgot" the rules requested by New-Zealand archives and lost the location information provided by the original captions. :roll:

Described as Mazovia in 1939 (historical region in mid-north-eastern Poland, bordered with Masuria a part of East Prussia). Two bunkers in small distance.
