So while I understand the guy took the cheaper option of cutting the trees down rather than pruning them, which is what he was asked to do, someone should have stepped up and said hey, let's at least find a way to preserve the bark. Or as one of the commenters said, at least take thorough digital pictures to preserve every carving and put them on the web or the WWII museum, etc.
well yeah, i wish they would have not been cut down too,

the thing about not war w/ FR was just something I noticed...

But still, it doesn't seem like they knew what the trees were until after the fact.
