Looks like you had a good and fruitful trip.
Cheers, Ade.
Unfortunately all items found with bodies is totally destroyed by a rust ( very agressive soil after the body is rotten)

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.

But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

That close to our previous finds, only 70 cm away !!! How did we miss them before , must have been a full trench system there not just MG 42 and mortar pits !!
So that's 9 altogether ? Did Gurov manage to excavate them ok ?

More MG 42 gunners , what is really interesting is that all the tags are from different units , not one the same so far !!
I'll have to consult my maps further to try and work out which unit was there as they may not be Norwegians as we thought after the first tag !!
