I know that German war cemeteries are being re-built and that graves are being re-marked (aided by excellent records of 60 years ago) in a German/Russian partnership.
Has anybody seen, on the web, a site which gives progress reports for the various projects.
I think that given the suffering it was not surprising (but still wrong) that the German cemeteries were bull-dozed flat by the NKVD type troops but I am very pleased to think that ordinary soldiers will have a grave to record them.
