My friend dug up a German newspaper and other papers.

Thanks.

Was that a dud (and very dangerous ) 8.8cm projectile sticking out of the soil? I also saw a live 20mm MINE projectile... I am sure you know how to deal with these things....

Amazing that newspaper survived as well as it did Sebastien. Great find! But alas...I don't speak German either. Ron

My friend dug Soviet fire extinguisher near the airfield Gumrak. This fire extinguisher was wrapped up in this German newspaper. German newspaper dating back to August 1942. There are Soviet propaganda newspaper for September 2, 1942.

Sebastien your paper contains a Death notice for Gustav Elmer KIA on the East front 14/6/1942 at the age of 27 years 5 months.

A reference to Major Georg Briel , and the award to him of the Knights Cross by the Fuhrer , he was commander of a FLAK Btl in the Western desert , this section also mentions of EL Alamein.

An account of Flying missions over England ,plus some sort of souvenir from Egypt.

Georg Briel won the RK 23/7/1942 as Kommandeur HeeresFlakBtl 606 in North Africa
