Summary: Protected between tons of earth, these are the most challenging offensive targets because they are the ultimate defensive hideouts, protecting civilians, soldiers, and our deadliest weapons. From the early bunkers of WWI to today's secret hideaways, these structures have evolved to keep up with the threat of ever more dangerous forms of attack.
