Found in German coastal gun bunker…
In a German bunker in Norway I stumbled across some Krigsmarine uniforms and a krigsmarine helmet + some small bits and paces.

Wow! lucky finds indeed! Thanks for posting.
Thanks for the reply`s!
This is from the same bunker. Does anybody have any clue what is in this jar?
Hi Oksnevad
Indeed what a find. Do you have pictures of the bunkers themselves? Did these items lay inside of them or did you had to dig? Is the interior of the helmet still present?

Hi Nick.
I only have one photo of the bunker because of the lack of light inside. But I will try to take some more pictures next time I go up there..
The helmet had a little bit of the liner left but it was rotten and fell of when I picked it up.
The stuff was stuffed in a corner under some old rotten tables and other bits of wood. Some of the stuff was dumped of a cliff only 10 m from the entrance.
Thanks
Great finds !! Just goes to show you shouldn't assume that even after 60 odd years that every bunker has been cleaned out !!

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
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
Yepp, some rely great find there
You lucky bugger !
Well done !
