The Wehrmacht left this base in a hurry. Nature took over this place, but the WW2 equipment is still very much present. With our shovels and sifters we encounter loads of relics from WW2.

I cannot thank you enough for what you do along with Mike and others. You help with piecing lives back together, putting anger to rest, honoring those that did it. Japanese, Italian, German, French, American, etc..., they're all human, Andy MacNab said it, " they all had jobs to do, just some liked it too much". I told ya my trench caved in, we had bad storms, lots of heavy rain, timbers support beams, walls gave way, glad I took out the equipment, table etc... the pumps couldn't take it, 88 sandbags, 6x6 ,4x4, posts, sheet metal, 1x10s buried.

If you don't mind me asking, where are you from yourself? I'm from Ireland personally. A lot of people don't realise the history underneath their own feet either and where youre from, there may be an incredible era waiting to be dug up too. I lived in the southern US for a few years and while I'm no detectorist or archaeologist like these guys, I did explore a few historical locations that weren't commercialised or all that known to the locals for a bit of fun. Here in Ireland, I'm surrounded in places like that and I go to them often. Theres always an abundance of it anywhere you are in the world

I hate being the guy to stop people from having but in some EU countries private digging is forbidden because the risk of complete destroying important finds of the past. Diggers can be a great addition to archeology but often aren't. I have seen too much damage to historical sites by people that just wanted to "make some money". Archeological finds are only useful in the full context of the area they are found in.

When I was a kid in Brittany my brother and I would often find corroded unfired German rifle cartridges in my grandmother's yard. The retreating Germans had dumped crates of ammo in her well as they retreated. After the war, but before I was born a German pow was disarming the explosives in the well,l when it blew up, killing him and three others, and raining down a deluge of bullets. They sealed the well with concrete but they just left the bullets rust away. My brother and I found them by the dozens a decade later.

@JohnPlayz1020 We also found lots of Chinese coins with a square hole through the center of them. My grandmother was born in China, into a French diplomatic family, and during her early childhood, it was a Chinese custom to exchange Goodluck gifts that were small beautifully decorated wall hangings that had good luck coins woven into wall hangings. When the Germans occupied Le Conquet, a village at the tip of the tip of that part of France which jutted out into the Atlantic, they commandeered my grandmother's house and property because it was the nicest and biggest house in the village to house German officers. The German officers removed all the Chinese good luck hangings, and threw them into my grandmother's garden to rot. Fifteen years later, my brother and I found a lot of those Chinese coins.

You guys should make a double mesh sifter. Top mesh is ok, but build another, identical with half that size, at a shallow angle and a chute at the end, the shut falls into a bucket or what have you. This is sort of standard MO when you sift for archaeological debris. Even the soil is gathered unto a tarp and an intern has another look before it is piled away. Trust me on this, it's worth the effort, because you can find bobby pins, beads, and a whole plethora of interesting items that would otherwise be lost. If you get the angle of the second sifter right, it's not even that big of a work out.

You should try to find information about these soldier names that came up. Maybe their life histories are registered somewhere, maybe some of their relatives are still around. It would be so interesting to know about them. With luck possibly even the soldier himself might still be alive.

I wish I could take part in something like this I’ve done 2 years in research in ww2 and specifically the German Regime

I live near major Civil War battlefields in Northern Georgia and Tennessee….we can’t, by law, go metal detecting in these locations, but because battles were waged all over the area, my friends and I have found numerous items on their properties.

A friend of my husbands was sent to prison for metal detecting on Chickamauga battlefield. He managed to hold onto several bullets he found.

that plane you found looks like a Dornier Do-217 medium bomber, could also be a BF-110 but looks more like a Do-217 or maybe even an earlier Do-17

Its weird that a huge war takes place next to your town. Many soldiers fall. Everything left on the field, lying there after defeat. The war ends. People begin to rebuild. The times change. And nobody goes out to the field and cleans anything up. This stuff was all on the surface at one time and everyone just left it. That seems odd.

Fascinating I suspect there are some stories lost in the mists of time associated with your finds.
