What I really like about yall, the respect yall show, it's not about just finding artifacts but showing respect to those caught up in that cancer of war. 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.

I lived in West Germany from 1980-1987 and I used to explore all the bunkers where I lived. We didn’t have a metal detector but we became quite good at finding cool stuff like this. Awesome that you film this for us to watch

I like the way the artifact is matched up with existing pictures . Brings the pieces to life .

i appreciate the extra editing that is done showing the cleaned up version when you get home or the flashback clips. i know how excited you must be to share what you found and during editing id be having anxiety wanting to get it done as fast as possible. but you go the extra mile to add it

That stuff seems awfully clean for being in the ground for 60+ years

If i lived in Europe i would have invested on a metal detector a long time ago. Just finding WW2 relics, maybe even from WW1, would be quite something. If you're lucky maybe even artifacts from the Roman Era. Europe has a long & rich history & the proof of it is right beneath the ground.

It’s crazy how insignificant these things were during and after the war but now, this is amazing history. These relics have and will survive many many more years and most of the relics will never be found but they will live on, just under the surface

Not to mention all the lifes lost connected with these relics as well. With respect & sadness. R.I.P. soldiers.

Dude, that broken beer-mug (with "DAB" written on it) is from my hometown of Dortmund; it stands short for "Dortmunder Actien-Brauerei" - that is a find really not to be expected... I mean; of course I know how much my fellow countrymen cherish their beer, but that they would even uphold the "table-etiquette" which would would require them to drink from a glass or mug rather than from the bottle itself - even when out on the battlefield - that's amazing !

One man’s trash is another’s historical treasure. Good stuff guys.

Always a good week when you guys upload! 👌🏻

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.

As he jams a shovel in the hole he says I do hear a lot of metal and glass sounds… brilliant…

In my head I just imagined present day otto reissner is somewhere sweating nervously right now lol

You guys are so lucky to be able to find all that stuff from WWII!

So sad, I appreciate you all for preserving and documenting the war relics. You guys have my respect as a US submariner. We are all comrades in arms after all and serve at the whims for the war mongers regardless of the countries we served for... damn them to hell.

According to what Ive found, Otto Reissner, the name tag from earlier in the video was an Unteroffizier, apparently he was a Luftwaffe Crewman who was KIA in June 1940. Could be that the name tag belongs to him, maybe not, who knows.

Just amazing! I am a WWII fanatic and am fascinated with all things WWII. JUST SIMPLY AMAZING! I envy you guys so much. Keep up the great work

13:16 Kraftfahrkampftruppe. Yes, German has lots of compound words. Means something like “motorised fighting force”
