: My grandfather loaned me his copy of The Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich, and in the Introduction, there was this paragraph:

: "The 485 tons of record of the German Foreign Office, captured by the U.S. First Army... For many years after the war tons of Nazi documents lay sealed in a large U.S. Army warehouse in Alexandria, Virginia, our government showing no interest in even opening the packing cases to see what of historical interest might lie within them."

: "Large Army warehouse", "packing cases", sounds familiar?
: Just some food for thought,

Very Interesting indeed--but according to the Lucasfilm archive,
the warehouse scene was created by using a matte painting for the backdrop,
and then the guy pushing the crate was filmed, and then they combined the
two for the desired effect.
