In Cambodia too, where the US dropped 540,000 tons of bombs during the Vietnam war.

Same in the UK. I'd hope we as a species would learn from things like that, but I fear we'll be seeing the same thing centuries from now even if the details change.

There were craters just outside the village I grew up in. We used to go sledding down them when I was a kid. The story I heard was it just dumped bombs from a raid on a larger city so they didn't have to carry them back.

When I was in elementary school in Lower Saxony I „often" couldn't go home after school because there was some defusion of WW2 bombs in my area going on. „Often“ means something like 10 times in 4 years. Was quite used to this and didn't think much about it back then. Now that I have kids myself I would be glad to know that they won't have to deal with the fails of my generation. But the older I get, the less confident I am.

Verdun, France too, though I don't think they build an airstrip on top of one.

Odds are the airport is on the same land an old Imperial Japanese airfield was on.

Yes the article supports that.

Yeah, in the Hamburg area we get a few alerts every 3 months or so. Never had one in my neighborhood, hopefully
