Two weeks ago I was out with some friends (I normally dig aircraft wrecks) who are battlefield nuts. After two hours of digging pounds and more pounds of shrapnel, we finished the day with 2x US Handgrenades (the heads were ripped of by the farmer's plow), 1x anti-tank round (fired), 1x mortar round with nose cone ripped off and a 75mm round from a Sherman. The biggest find was the door of a bunker, it must have been blown of the hinges when the bunker was destroyed. We only uncovered about 40% and then, exhausted, closed the hole again. We did report the explosives by the way, but I would love to have the bunker door out for a local museum perhaps (won't fit in my basement). Danny
