The dugout that was reconstructed in the museumincludes a few bunks, a dining area, an officer’s mess, a workshop and an aid post. An aid post was not often seen in an underground shelter. Further into the reconstruction, you can find a pump room, latrines, a kitchen and a few other types of dugouts at the end. Excrement was carried out in buckets from the latrines because cesspits couldn’t be dug at that depth.
