  • In this battlefield research video we show you some interesting war relics that we found in our last visit on the eastern front. Such as medals, rifles, some pistols and other things that were left behind in the woods after the war.
    Greetings from Holland.

    Hey friends, great job ...
    I love this hobby, because in addition to historical research will bring to light the forgotten for decades, items that belonged to people that there is no more ...
    Honor to the fallen of any army!

    We discovered a place where a few German soldiers had threw away some rifles, pistols and small stuff like the tags. When a soldier gets killed and buried in the field, the tag with the 2 holes stays around the neck, the broken off other half ( with one hole ) is taken away for administrative purpose. At the end and after the war, a lot of soldiers discarded their tag and other warstuff, it was no longer needed.

    Wow. And to think right after the war you could have gone out there to find firearms just laying out there. To find them after all these years is just incredible. Great video.

    Yesterday my Grandpa gave me a 38H that was given to him by his brother. His brither got it from his father in law. No-one really knows the true story behind how it got to the United States. It is a very cool piece of History. Thank you for sharing :)

    Hi Sebastien. The relics we find we show here on CZcams, and are on display in a private collection. Of the excavation of a missing soldier we would make an interesting video, everything official.

  • @hoosierdaddy2308
    @hoosierdaddy2308 Před 10 lety

    Wow, very nice finds. The P08, and the Luger are so cool. I worked in a gun shop here in the 80's and a man brought in his grandfathers luger from WW1 which was an artillery luger his grandfather LIBERATED from german prisoners or something and it was the same but with a huge long barrel and case, etc, and it was beautiful. What craftsmanship. The Germans had to replace the luger because of it's expense to make, so of course this is the reason they made the first real double action P08 9mm Kurtz. Thank you so much for the videos. Regards from the US. Tim

    @WWIIMetalDetecting  Před 11 lety

    Hey Siem, cool om te horen dat je ook met de hobby ben begonnen, heel goed. Bossen waarin is geknokt, verdedigd, gebivakeerd, doorheen getrokken en waarin na de oorlog materiaal in is gedumpt zijn bossen waar je vondsten kan verwachten. Dus veel lezen over wo2 ( je opa vragen of die nog tips heeft ) en veel uitproberen tot je een goede locatie heb. Als er al door anderen is gezocht, gewoon doorgaan, niet te snel opgeven dan. Volle munitie weer terugbegraven, en kuiltjes weer dichtmaken, succes!

    @polarrrbear Před 10 lety

    This was an excellent video. Good job. I spend a lot of time in St. Petersburg, Russia and even though I don't do this myself, I have seen a lot of helmets, weapon parts, shells, dug in tank positions and characteristic mortar craters very visible in and around the city. Sadly, I have seen some of these items not handled with respect, especially when I saw an old Russian helmet with a bullet hole tossed aside and left to rot outside of someone's shed. Anyway I hope to see more of your discoveries!

    Je mag wel zoeken in NL, maar een hoop locatie's zijn natuurgebied of er geldt een detectorverbod, opgenomen in de algemene plaatselijke verordening (APV). En verstandig is om ammo alleen te zien als aanwijzing van strijd. Lekker terugbegraven en aanmelden, niet zelf mee gaan zeulen.

    You'll only run into problems when you dismantle things yourself. If you find ammunition, don't touch it more than is necessary. Check this video out: подрыв в Синявино ....this happens when you have no respect for old live ammo.
