"How can a person not love our Hobby! History can at age put the wonderful sparkle in anyone's eye at any age".
Any dug up relic from any battlefield, is a joy to see.
Amazing "finds" and with the unusual/odd bits and pieces, that relieve the boredom of every day life.
To see these guys out and about, digging/scraping/diving and cleaning up these remarkable items for us to look at, is great.
The main thing is the history that's been "refound" with it, bringing it back to life once more.
Long may it continue..

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
Thank you Paul!

And one more visit to the place of the knocked Marder 2D in January 2020.

I found two crew helmets but these two M35 in very poor condition. Fragment of the seat in battle demage condition, mounting spare tracks and other pieces of metal from this tank hunter.
There should be two more helmets. Crew for Marder 2D - 4 soldiers.
