Kurt is correct BUT they did not get everything that was in the bunker. There were people going in and out for months after the war ended, and finding things right and left.
Jesset,
Good finds and do some research to see exactly what you have. At least you know that its not been dug up from some gravesite like the Russians are doing. Loads of the WW2 stuff on Ebay have been found this way and its sickening.
