Great, that you keep us updated with these details.
Very interesting. Thanks.
Too bad you didn't find anything, must be a rush walking around in that area though!
I didn't realise that the Canning factory was so close to the Getriede Silo , thanks for posting the photos Andrey.
The film clip shows the 29 ID (Mot ) but the main damage to the Silo was done by 50 rounds from 88mm FLAK Guns.

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Very cool! I had never seen that vid of the PAK shooting at the grain elevator. Was the grain elevator the same shade of blue during WWII? I always thought it was white.
Amazing that the area remains almost untouched, great photos Andrey!
