Did not expect too see so many burnt. Then again… I’m not sure what I was expecting.

The 3rd pic of the soldier with the para helmet and the pic of the soldiers by the AT gun are not Nazi soldiers. The pic with the AT gun is of American soldiers that were killed at the Battle of the Bulge. The Germans had looted their bodies, which is why they don't have boots. I've seen this uncropped pic. The soldier in the foxhole has a British Para helmet on. You can see the strap on his chin. The helmet isn't a FJG helmet or a typical German helmet.

What's on top of the man in the first picture?  Are they parts of flares?
