Interesting.

Wonder if they will bring up any pieces that would be specific to the Me 323.

I'm guessing any pieces from the Gigant is rare, so I'd assume they would want to get something.
I read the only thing that exists is a wing spar on display in Germany.

Videos of this bird are amazing. Looks like a giant dragonfly.
Isn't the Me-323 the first transport to open up like that and be able to drive/ transport armor in it?
Such transports are commonplace now
Another German innovation (?) later adapted by other countries militaries after the war.
