Exterior of Barracks


The most poignant structure here.  The 3-story barracks.  Designed to do exactly this, let the top two floors give way to bombing, while the base floor would remain standing and protected.  Certainly can't imagine touring a site like this in the US, the flooring and walls here seem like they could cave in at any moment.  Such a hellish memorial really serves to paint the picture of war.  Seven days of this??  I cannot even begin to imagine the bravery.
