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

The sight looks like it may be off a mortar or maybe heavy mg

Dear Paul E,
I know Galina Oreschkina, but she unknows me)))
You must know that Galina is very popular woman in Military Archeology by Volgograd)))
About find:
things on the pictures found in last Spring, Summer, Autumn (2009). I said that season 2010 just begins.
Now, at Stalingrad is very cold, like Winter 1942, really))) brrrrrrr.....
But last weekend I went to Gorodishe, it was in vain. I found only a few rusty bullets and shell fragments and frostbitten my ass)))
Hello Sebastian, I always prefer to see the ground dug items more than the untouched or unissued ones. I think they show so much more of their history! Thank you for your photographs - Australia is a long way from Europe so we can only dream of digging like you can!
Dear Danmark,
Thank You for Your words.
You right that Australia is a long way from Europe, but there warmth, now :-)
Summer 2009, district my summer cottage.
I walked on the russian position. This was our results.

Sorry Sebastian i see now !!! Still a bit early for digging now but i commend you for going out and trying in those temperatures and the snow , as you say just like the winter of 1942
Nice finds in the summer, i look forward to seeing your finds when the weather breaks for this year.
I Know Galina she must be one of the most famous women in Russia in Military Archeology !! Have you seen her museum at Gorodische ?? I have drunk tea and Wotka with her before , she got me very very drunk !!!!!!!!!!!
