Abwehrschlacht im Huertgenwald.

men it's always a bummer when you find these. They are nice on a picture but that's about it. I like the detonator, as long as it's harmless.

 

I agree, its nice for a photo, for the rest i do not have any interest in ammo!

 

Picture of the woods near Lammersdorf.

 

I love these pine forests , they remind me of my youth . Where i live there are oaks and birches , a few pines too , but more like the Austian black pines. Very nice picture !

 

The trees remind me of my youth too, even thought it was in Minnesota, not Europe!

Excellent stuff here man; post more! I'll definitely look for this kind of thing when I visit the Fatherland in 2009.

 

PS VGD how much does a metal detector cost?

 

Thanks guys.

Hufflepuff; what kind of type? I have an XP ADX100 and that one kosted around 450 euro's.

 

Are they so expensive, I thought you could get one for half that prize?

 

You do, but not the same quallity.

 

Some Hürtgen finds done 2 months ago.
US messtin, some .30-06 cartridges, many buckles and grommets from a US tent, a headlight from a truck, maybe from a Kübelwagen or something? Found it near some German/US ammunition, a broken bottle with text on it (Washington DC), and some other stuff.

 

The messtin, found on the surface last year in December. Found by someone else who didn’t wanted it I guess… Bad condition... but still happy with it.

 

Wrench of a German fieldphone.



Mint condition:

 

very nice stuff! keep them coming!!

 

US M1 Garand belt buckles.


7,92 x 57 mm MG34/42 cartridges.

 

those bullets look like they are in great condition!

 

They are. All dated from 1944.

 

Last weekend we visited the Hürtgen/Eifel forests, here some findings done by me and my friend and his son. Some of the findings include a StG44 magazine, US canteen, US messtin, US AT mine lid, US shaving cream, M1 carbine grenade launcher (very rare), buttons and buckles, Garand ammunition clips, old coin from 1832, German gasmask container (rotted), old bottles, US shovels, and a German "harmonica" or "mouth-organ"... don't know if I spell that right?

 

Great findings and pictures!

 

Whoa! Sweet pictures.
Do you use some kind of metal detector?
