I really wish I was in a position to be a Patreon and to buy a small piece of history from you, unfortunately I am not able to do either, but I will certainly be liking and sharing your videos, I am an absolute fanatic for history, especially the the early 1930s-1980s, my real interest is from pre WWII to the early post war and within that era I love everything military aviation. Thanks again for sharing your hard work, knowledge and understanding of your finds, I learn something new to learn in every episode. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴
Wow this is amazing. This generation needs to remember the history of the relics you find or we will repeat history. Remember we know not what weapons WW3 will be fought with but WW4 will be fought with sticks and stones. May the great peace last for generation to generation and our children know not the fear or war. Love and light to all.
At 7:36 I see you're wearing the screaming eagle on your jacket there. Cool. I was stationed there in the military. Great finds btw. I would love to find some of those plate parts. It's amazing to see you guys finding all of those relics.
It’s not a zoom meeting with Governor of Ohio, U.S.A. Mike DeWine is it, you are not missing anything. Two hours of saying the same thing in reworded sentences to fill two hours of time.
Awesome dig! You must have been overwhelmed by the sheer amount history underfoot. That would have been very high on my bucket list. It was nice to see you and Mike back together for a dig. Outstanding video, and editing as usual. Happy hunting, Hank
@@EQI264 hes in Germany, how can he help u in your state? U have several options, Indian artifacts in your area, revolutionary, civil war, post civil war, 1900's+, industrial age, or modern river, lake - swimming holes scuba diving for phones, sunglasses ect. Research at your local library maps, from early settlers homes, colonial, civil war skirmishes ect. Good luck
You need to take the time to put the porcelain together because you may end up with a complet plate which means picking up the small bits to do this. Metal is not the only other treasure!
I sure do enjoy watching you guys excavating these sites. Those grunts threw that Stuff away and thought nothing of it, and now when you dig it up, we can see what regular life was like by what they dumped there. Great stuff Man.
I am a secondary school student in hk I am so interested in WW2 I have been reading and searching about Wehrmacht I love WW2 history Your video are great I will recommend them to my friends
You are partially correct. They dumped their gear to move faster. The incriminating theory is wrong. My grand father was a Wehrmacht soldier and they tossed every but food. They literally threw weapons in the woods because they didn’t want a firefight. They just wanted to surrender
These are some very very VERY interesting finds!!!! These Are things that us Americans can't find over here this is sooo AWESOME!!! thank you for going on these adventures and showing /educating us with the these amazingly authentic finds!!
about the "nametags": i instantly thougt of the nameplates used on doorbells of big houses (im pretty sure those not an "only in germany thing") also with the plates and razor and so on id quess its just stuff from some kind of appartment building jet, lockers seem plausible as well
If you were to use a ceramic tile saw (with water cooling) you could make salable relics of the bottoms of the bowls and plates. Wouldn't take much work and could bring in some money for your trips.
Were you near a city? Maybe after Germans left the town dumped everything in the woods that belongs to the germans? Especially since you didn't find any ammunition, bullets or war related items. Really Awesome finds and video!
I'm shocked this stuff is just laying on the ground after 80 years! By the way, did you guys ever think about taking a visitor with you? I'm a serious WWII buff and want very badly to come to Europe to do this very thing. I would pay and cover expenses and perhaps others would too. It may be a good way to bolster your expenses to do on occasion. Not a group, just one person or two on occasion. Thanks for the great video!
I agree! Im Irish and am fascinated with this hobby and what you recover. I commend anyone also who retrieves the dead to give these soldier's the burial they deserve. Those men were warriors and died by being obedient. Cool relics guys. Namaste🙂
I've got a pefect teapot, it's small with green ring around it and two fancy initials on it, it was left in a house we bought off an old woman in Poland, she worked for the german airforce. it's great to see this stuff coming up
If you ever do other digs that are in similar soil, bring the netting bag from a potato/onion bunch with you. Drop the dirt in and then wiggle it until nothing but the big stuff is left. Bring two or three with you, as they can break eventually.
A little bit of history. My father grew up in Ludinghausen. Yes he was a German foot soldier, and so was his brother. My mom was born in Ulm. She lived with her step mom and dad. Her step dad worked as a train engineer, during and after the war. As for me, I went to cooking school in Bad Reichenhall back in 1977. Since retiring I bought a metal detector. It's a whites V3i. Top of the line. As for me I live in Jacksonville, FL. So I use my detector at the beaches. Alot of can tabs, enough to fill up a 55 gallon plastic garbage can. But my greatest finds were a Rolex Watch and a complete wedding set. His and hers,plus her very large engagement ring. The owners names were on the inside so I found them and called them. The husband was going to write a check, but I told him cash only. Checks bounce. So he gave me 10,000.00 dollars. That Rolex watch I still wear. Plus I found 2 gold coins, but they were not to old. My silver coin collection is about 40,000 coins. Plus normal old coins from the 40's and the way to the 2015. I don't go anymore since I lost my leg below my knee, plus my age. I just turned 63 and my back won't let me swing that detector. So I gave it to my daughter. She loves her new hobby. Love your videos
What a great personal story! Thanks for sharing. You have had quite some big moments yourself so I hear. Sorry to hear about your leg. Good to pass on the hobby to family! Thanks for watching and take care!
Hallo Kameraden, nett Arbeit mein Freund ich bin Deutsch Amerikaner und ich liebe mein Geschichte Gut Arbeit und halten es up,ich habe ein Deutsch Helmut hergestellt in Finland während der Fortsetzung krieg in 1941-2 und ich liebe mein Helmut!
I'd think you could dig anywhere in Europe and find historical stuff, not just WW2. You can find skeletons, unexploded bombs, mines, ammunition, and many other remnants of thousands of years of human activities.
@@einfelder8262 unfortunately you are thinking wrong friend. It’s not like you can just turn the earth over anywhere and find something,apart from worms and dirt that is lmao.
Do you ever attempt to piece back together the porcelain plates you are finding? I imagine that the pieces are all located near each other, and once you get them cleaned up they should go back together with superglue pretty easily.
Super finds, I’m English but I’m fascinated by the amount of things, objects that the Germans made, I wish I could dig for history like that but here in England thats not possible.
Incredible dump site. Wouldn’t it be cool if after you get home - you can put together the pieces of porcelain and make a whole plate or other dish. Super impressive! Iron Mike is always fun to have around, “OOOOOOOOOOOOO”
It looks like you have a trash dump. I have seen many of these in the western US, and they contain exactly this--bottles (usually broken, but some whole), broken dishes, tin cans, odds and ends of household and personal items, etc. One item to note, on the dates on the plates-- that's when they were made, not when they were dumped there. But you most certainly have a dump of some type of habitation, probably an army camp. Maybe a field kitchen, since there are so many broken dishes
@@mdww2battlegrounds do you know if he sells some of these bags? I have bought some finding bags but none of em really fit my need in terms of space and ruggedness. yours looks really awesome and has lots of space! If you were able to give me some way to contact the creator of your bags that would be awesome!
AWESOME Finds Guys!!! Great video I'm on Vanouver Island and we don't have anything war related to find at least not like you guys..I would really like to join you guys on one of your digs.I get just as excited as you when you find something.. Cheers Guys
A screen would be great for digging those dumps. I dig in a WII one near here. All the trash from downtown Honolulu during the War years. I've found some WWII American stuff, buttons, badges, coins. My only Indian Cent, 1889, 14kt wedding band. I get an attitude problem sometimes and want to dig older. I found a button of the Republic of Hawaii National Guard-c1895. It's a fun Hobby and I advertise the screens I make for diggers in American Digger. They are about 35x57 cm and 10cm deep, oak & stainless.

I really wish I was there helping unearth these artifacts. I'm so glad I found you guys and your videos. I can't wait for the next one.
Totally man, happily help out for a chance to see some of these pieces of history
The German Armed Forces definitely ate off of excellent dishes
Discovery North Carolina ty 😉😂
Why are all of the dishes broken if they are so great?
To be fair they were cracked out of their mind too, so they probably cleaned them out of insane ADD
Yes there plates high quality than future time
@@TheGLORY13 hahahahaha can relate
A gold mine of WW2 history.. I can't believe how much you found in such a short time....

So much history resting right under their feet as they walk thru the forest.

We were overwhelmed indeed. So many relics here, it was really incredible! Yeah it's always fun to team up with Mike. Thanks for watching.
Might i ask how you find these places bc im in Southern Ohio United States and we cannot find any places to look

That means a lot, thanks for watching!
Wish they would dig the Falaise Pocket, huge amounts were just dumped there.
They were told to dump anything that would incriminate them and to lighten your loose on retreat or capture
You are partially correct. They dumped their gear to move faster. The incriminating theory is wrong. My grand father was a Wehrmacht soldier and they tossed every but food. They literally threw weapons in the woods because they didn’t want a firefight. They just wanted to surrender
That Krakau badge.. gave me chills.
Man if I lived close I would totally volunteer to come along and sift all that dirt for you....love those personal small finds!
These are some very very VERY interesting finds!!!! These Are things that us Americans can't find over here this is sooo AWESOME!!! thank you for going on these adventures and showing /educating us with the these amazingly authentic finds!!
This channel is the best metal detection!
Congratulations! Rescuing WWII history.
A hug from Brazilians!
Look at Czech diggers channel. Its really good channel full of great finds from WW2
Big hug back from the Netherlands! Thanks for the support!
Best metal detecting channel ever. More videos please! Greetings from Italy
Thanks for appreciating!
That can of coke at 7.16 was in amazing condition
I thought fanta was the drink of choice for germans.
Terima kasih...ada subtitel indonesia...saya penggemar beral channel seperti ini...nice😊
You guys could get a mesh screen and screen all that lose soil. Cool video
You guys have inspired me to metal detecting and one day ill visit Germany and do some searching big fan from northern Ontario 🇨🇦
your videos are 1st class to watch thank you
Thanks Kenneth, I appreciate that!
Wow! The plates..
about the "nametags": i instantly thougt of the nameplates used on doorbells of big houses (im pretty sure those not an "only in germany thing") also with the plates and razor and so on id quess its just stuff from some kind of appartment building

Seeing all of those in-tact glass bottles excited me. I’d 100% repurpose them or just use them as decoration as is if I found those!

Where are you from, if i may ask?
I agree! Im Irish and am fascinated with this hobby and what you recover.
I commend anyone also who retrieves the dead to give these soldier's the burial they deserve.
Those men were warriors and died by being obedient.
Cool relics guys.
Namaste🙂
Me too. Maybe he can have a bed and breakfast house, to help him w $, and us with cost
Cool idea
Peace from canada
Be safe
Another great dig lads, love the knowledge you have.
I love the 101st SSI on your front pocket.
I can't believe how fascinating this is! Greetings from the USA... South Carolina
I've got a pefect teapot, it's small with green ring around it and two fancy initials on it, it was left in a house we bought off an old woman in Poland, she worked for the german airforce. it's great to see this stuff coming up
Amazing finds again , what a dream location ,unbelievable just on the surface🤩
Gr. Jelle
Thank you for this . Al
I want you guys to look into having some kind of broadcast show, you deserve a love series doing this work!
That means a lot, thanks! Maybe one day.
You need to make a sifter box an bring it with you for doing these digs. Thx for the vid.
You must be digging where an old barracks building was or similar. Mess hall equipment, locker tags, locks. Not field items. Awesome place!
I think so too! Lots of potential there.
Thanks in advance for subtitle😁 andddd Good Luck dudee. Love from Indonesia.❤️
You are welcome! Cheers.
the treasurebag is awesome!👍🏻
Amazing stuff gents. Thank you for your history hunting efforts.
Thanks for the support!
This is sooo cool tanks you so much

Great finds. And all the information. Thank you so much for sharing. It was your channel that inspired me to improve mine. Still needs a lot of work.
That means a lot to hear that! Glad I could inspire you. I am also still trying to improve everytime. This is just an ongoing proces haha.
@@mdww2battlegrounds well greetings from Switzerland. Hope to be back out on the war sites from next week when the borders open
That bag is freaking awesome!!

Thanks for watching!
Such an amazing video, so many relics, do you keep most of the relics you find or do you donate them to museums??
Great site! so glad I found you!
Your videos inspired me to buy s metaldetektor and go to the woods. Next week i will go there with my friend in the german State of Baden-Württemberg
Glad to see you n Mike back digging I'd put that place on my list to go back to
Oh it's on there. Cheers!
This might be off topic, but you should metal detect for WW1 things. That would be cool
I was wondering how do you find the places to look for the artifacts. Is it a lot of research or is it known where the places are. Love you channel.
I’d say you just need to look for old maps, and battle information
I'd think you could dig anywhere in Europe and find historical stuff, not just WW2. You can find skeletons, unexploded bombs, mines, ammunition, and many other remnants of thousands of years of human activities.

Brilliant video, whenever I go metal detecting all I find is the odd nail ,

That bag is killer if he sells those you can tell its great and probly at least few hundread well hand built bag like that is nice. .
Some kind of a long term camp or military structure was there. Pretty cool!!
Love the vids man!

My great grandpa was in WW2 and he just recently died last year
Super finds, I’m English but I’m fascinated by the amount of things, objects that the Germans made, I wish I could dig for history like that but here in England thats not possible.
Yeah I live in the south and the most we get is some odd 303 rounds on the beach
Same here in america only civil war relics here
Super cool Video und Funde

Those are locker tags. I've found them as well. Great finds and I love the Reichswehr marked prorcelain.
Great to know! Our thoughts were on point then.
