Great little find, There are so many spots around the Pine Rivers area full of WW2 sites, a big one is at the end of / opposite Torrens Road along Narangba road there was an open army depo down in the valley but was filled in when they thought the Japanese was going to come down this way, and now they've built houses on top of it, but to the left of that area where the open area and past the houses it may be worth having a scratch around there, I did find some remains of old WW2 building in the dirt and grass, that was years ago though.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the info. I'll definitely have to have a look. I believe there was an Artillery Firing Range on Torrens Rd that aimed up towards Clear Mountain. I'll do a bit more research on that one.
@@camcarteradventures I did forget to say a good deal of Braypark area was a practice range as well, when they first started developing that area they were always had the army bomb squad there clearing unexploded stuff out and even then people were still finding things.
Yeh, that was my initial plan but there was 80 years of baked on sediment on the slab. Probably can’t see it in the video but it was about 100mm thick and the roots had made it pretty hard to clear. I also wanted to pile the leaf litter and dirt to the sides so we could run the detector over it.
Crazy only 3 months after your video some other TH-camrs have gone there with metal detectors to find relics 😂 “the digging detectives” is the channel if you wanna sus
Great video. I am in Joyner and started metal detecting the property and have already found great stuff from Camp Strathpine
Cool. I would love to see what you’ve found.
@@camcarteradventures I can show you what I have found so far but I don't think I can add photos to you tube!
good stuff, you have an Aussie ' Rising Sun ' badge in your finds by the look .
Not a hat badge. I believe it's off the collar.
They are usually smaller than hat badge , only an inch or so if WW2 era @@camcarteradventures
Yep. That’s the one we’ve got.
I'm really enjoying your videos mate, nice work.
Thanks very much for watching. I've got heaps more planned.

Cam your videos are getting better and better. I enjoyed this very much
Thanks for encouragement. I was really excited to make this one. There really is a lot more history out there to uncover!
As usual. Love ya work mate. Awesome history 👍👍👌
👍
cool video buddy
Asbestos aside, it looks like a job for a leaf blower to save yourself from some back breaking work

Just checked and I’m pre sure it’s in the exact same spot 😂
