Thank you for posting the picture. What stunned me in the article was learning that the footwear worm by the soldiers had straw overshoes made by Russian prisoners, that were not much more sophisticated than those worn by Ötzi, the 5000-year-old “ice man” who was found not far away in 1991. So often, we view ourselves as an advanced society, only to discover that our ancestors were quite adept at adjusting to their surroundings.
