SNOW Eifel November 2008

Here are some shots from the trip 272VGD and i did a week after our las Eifel trip, this time there where the same conditions like in 1944 witch resulted in some nice pictures and a few findings.

Some pictures along the road to the area where we where going to search:









In the side of a dugout i found these US radio items from the signal corps:

















Some more pictures from the area:

























Some piece of trench art:













And some bad pictures from the dangerous trip back home:

 

It was a good trip Edwin!!!
An experience I will never forget.

 

That sure is a lot of snow! Looks very nice, can't wait to make these kinds of trips in the future.

 

I also would like to add some pictures of that weekend with Aru-Ed in the woods.
Also some small findings done by me, a nice German coin, US eye shield and a US razorblade...

 

PART II:

 

Excellent pics of the area. Thanx again!!!

 

Great stuff guys! Especially of the two rock stars in the snow!
That must have given you a small sense of what is like back then!

 

Rock? Metal you mean!!!
Well, Aru-Ed listens to girlie music.

 

Hmmm........

 

It fits with your badge.

 

Great items! I want that Napkin ring trench art! .

You guys are actually lucky you didn't freeze , we would have found you 60 years later among the relics

 

*SIGH* Man, I live vicariously through you guys and the trips you have! Please, don't ever stop posting the pictures! Truly one of the highlights of this board gentlemen!!

 

Thanks Steve, we will.
And just to let you know, my offer still stands!
