    Two days ago I went on a business trip on the River Don.
    This is the area most north desert in the world - "Don-Archeda Sands"
    I found the shells, it's from the Civil War (1918-1920)

    About an hour ago I returned from the excavation.
    Job annoys me. I can dig only at night

    Today I found a silver pendant, this is of imperial Russia

    Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
    Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
    Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
    Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
    We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
    But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

    I would literally crap myself if I dug up a skeleton. Or even a bone. Good job taking care of them though, giving them burials like the men they are. German or Russian.

    I am very impressed you found RIBBONS. I even saw the Sudetenland medal. I smiled at the Tank Battle Badges. Amazing stuff! Keep going I support you too!

    That pendent is a really super find Sebastien! It's a wonder you have as much time as you do to do so much digging etc.You sure it's not your full time job? Ron

    Yes Ron, it was my full-time job: I work from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. After dinner, at 9:00 pm I'm going to dig and dig to 11-12 pm

    Today was the same.
    you remember this place, it is close to the university where I studied.
    Today I dug up the Romanian dog tag

    This is the 16th Romanian dog tag that I found in the ravine...

    As usual nice finds, Sebastian.
    The Bayonet in post 825 looks like it could clean up nicely.
    Looks like an oiler next to the left of the Romanian dogtag....
