Senior Master Sergeant
One of the poor Forts crashed around my born town.
We did a expedition in the woods today. Look at the finds and enjoy!
The prop leaf was found 2 weeks ago by 2 local guys. There are still readable signatures of the mechanics on it!

Nice finds Roman ! Some of the parts appear to have what looks like RLM 76 paint on them. Could some be from a Luftwaffe crate, as well as B17 ?
 
You´re welcome Terry. It was a really great Saturday! First 1/2 hour and we had a lot of finds...a lot of finds on the surface just under the beech leaves and a lot in the ground but not so deep- to 10 inches...as it exploded in the air.
We spent there about 4 hours in 10 people with 4 detectors but there still are the THINGS to be found...so the next spring...
 
Sounds great Roman. I'll have to try to get over again when you're going to a crash site - I'd make my legs work for that !
