  • @anthonyroberts7718
    @anthonyroberts7718 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    It’s just amazing as to how many items are still out there to be found. You would think that over seventy years after the war, everything would have been found. So I guess when they cleared the mind fields, they just cast the detonators to the side and took the mines to be disposed of? It’s amazing that the small wires on the detonators were still there after all these years. Nice find on the button Bunker Buster Girl. I wonder if a soldier was crouched down behind the railroad tie and when he got up, it got hung on the tie and came off? Many nice items being found.

    Bunker Buster Girl does it again. You could just sit back and let her find all the history treasures. It’s amazing the button was that close to the surface. I wonder if it got bent by the railroad tie when a soldier dived behind it for cover? It’s amazing you can find the detonators with the prongs still intact. You would think they would have rusted off over the years. I know you know what your doing but I worry about you being in the mine fields. So happy to see you and your daughter sharing history with us. Great video.

      NO IT IS NOT! Depending what explosive was used it can’t become very unstable, and just touching a mine can cause a detonation.
      I was a British soldier, and part of my training is in mine warfare, and anti handling techniques (you touch something it goes bang).
      Unless you are a certified ATO (Ammunition Technician Officer, aka bomb disposal) DO NOT TOUCH this stuff, it will kill you!.
      The Germans were known for having different fuses in their potato smasher grenades, including one that caused an immediate detention (booby trap).
      We had a joke, how can you tell an ATO? They only have three fingers.

      Army Transport service buttons. Can't really imagine why he'd be in a minefield though. They didn't have much to do with actual on-the-ground missions so it's odd. Maybe they dumped a dead POW body there.

      @@scottdunn1093, makes one wonder why the military doesn't make every tenth mine detonator look like spiders, or other creepy crawlies huh? Even if a lonely, long deployed and seasoned soldier knew it was a trap, it would be hard to resist a mine detonator with a preview of porn on the top and a caption that said, "unedited view on back" lol
      Maybe for the newer, technologically addicted young soldier, a built in version of the video game "Just Dance" would be in order to put into a mine.... "What the hell were you thinking, private??!!" "But Sarge, it was a Just Dance screen there on the ground, begging me to dance, I couldn't resist!" "Private, you're a lucky idiot, it was only a Bieber tune and somehow you couldn't resist???!!"

      This is only a detonator and would kept separate from the mine until arming the mine. Typically a mine would be laid, then the detonator inserted.
      Handling an armed mine is extremely dangerous. Even handling a 50 year old detonator is extremely dangerous.
