I agree. I think any aspect of war is fair game. It was not just about sitting around having a smoke on top of a tank.

Interesting idea, but likely to provoke sympathy for the wrong group of people. It's just as easy for many to point their fingers at the atrocities of the Russians as those of the Germans.

How about the most innocent vicitms of the war, the civilians in the concentration camps? While I suspect we're some time away from DML's "Camp Guards and Stacked Corpses, Dachau," it carries much more
historical weight than soldiers relieving themselves.

Question is, who's got balls enough to walk into AMPS with a diorama like that?
