I don‘t think it was exaggerated when Europe needed the Marshal plan to reconstruct. You can check the scale in dollars.

In many cities bombs are still routinely found and deactivated. In Berlin, for example, a few blocks of Kreuzberg are now and then emptied (go do sth for the day) by the authorities to deactivate ww2 bombs.

It also sounds a bit insensitive.
