Wasn’t that obvious? It would be crazy to keep them for other 4 years

Well, the tower was also supposed to be temporary and yet, it’s still there 137 years later.

Apparently we have the Nazis to thank (?) for that. It was going to be pulled down but it made a very good radio transmitter antenna, so it stayed up

Thanks, nazis!

They should have kept them there, like badges. Collected more and gotten totally blinged out. It should have a badge for WWII.
