Incredible preservation of the leather on the Walther P-38 holster! What a find!
Great day outside with history Clay :)
Thoroughly enjoy your videos, your research and follow up pictures are so great! You really make history come alive, thank you!
The silver box is a cigarette case. They were very fashionable with German officers during WW 2. Enjoy your videos greatly.
I love this video! Thanks for uploading! What a great find to be able to put together most of that holster. I am surprised that the leather is not rotted away. I love the history!
Whenever I hear "holy Madonna" .... I know its going to be great!
Becoming addicted to your brilliant work - thanks.

***** I'm sure he means Happy Hunting. HH is used by the majority of metal detectorists here on UA-cam, also those who are looking for coins, Civil War stuff etc.
***** If You look at my full UA-cam name it is : WW2HistoryHunter , right ?
Wel , l WW2HH is just short for that full name :)
No the thanks goes to you for taking the time to detect and upload these amazing blasts of history.

Very happy for you that you've found this p38 holster in such good leather condition. It's a real pleasure to watch your videos! Thanks!
Your videos are addictive my friend ! I can't get enought of them. ! Everyone is great , so much history to see . Again thanks for posting this video !
Oh wow! Such awesome bits of WW2 history, unbelievable to find the 3 separate pieces of the holster plus the date and the eagle to prove the time frame. Thank you for inserting a picture of the Henkel as well as the interior of the cockpit. Also loved the picture of the gun and holster for comparison. Great adventure HH.
yes indeed Beverely and there are more there :) Thank you for taking time to
comment and watch.
fell in love with your channel yesterday. now I'm binge watching discovery videos lol
Great finds! Keep on looking, can't wait for more from you! Greetings from Poland!
finally got a chance to sit and watch this video, wonderful history relics you found, the missing pistol must really inspire you to go back and see if it can also be found!!
Best of luck, I enjoyed it immensely . Hurry before nature does her job of making things difficult!
Thats what so great about hunting history. You never know what is NeXT.
Will do my best to find more :)
thanks for watching.
WW2HH
I love your enthusiasm for history I would love to explore where you explore crazy exciting
+mnicrashSoren lol . i teng to get eited yes. thanks man
thank you brother for sharing next best thing to being there
At 11:30 what was found is a cigarette case. The German soldiers during WWII rolled their own. That is a good find! Surely a piece of history a museum would take.
Excellent finds. You are touching history. Incredible!
That silver box is actually a cigarette case comonly carried by Wehrmacht officers. I love what you do!!!!
ok and thanks Nathaniel
Your video was so much fun to watch. It must be so awesome to search for history like this. You make me want to get out and look. Good luck in your adventures. I subscribed to your channel.
Carol
Love your videos! Hope you keep sharing your discoveries with us!
Will do my best and hopefully more videos later.
Greetings from WW2HH
At 12:17 in case you're wondering what that shiny thin case was, it's a cigarette carrier. Most officers carried their cigarettes in those so they were protected from the elements.
I love your enthusiasm and will end up saying holy madonna now haha
These videos of your adventures are very fun to watch and educational too. And the best part is your unbridled enthusiasm and happiness when you find really cool stuff. Carry on, History Hunter...you help spread cheer in the world. :-)
WW2HistoryHunter You're welcome :-)
great finds this area needs moor work
keep up the good work and best of luck
really enjoy your videos mate I watch them from start to finish everytime keep up the good work.
Oldie but a goodie! Love this location great video! Thanks HH👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much Mark :)
What you're doing is fascinating. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Great job, I was glued to the computer screen! I am hoping you find more there. Good luck and keep the Vids coming
that was awesome man!! love the videos, keep up the good work!
+Keegan Palmer Glad You watched Keegan
How amazing finding a cockpit switch and holster! How on earth did they get left behind!? So glad you found them! Where is the pistol?
Just what i thought , why are they there :) Thanks my friend.
Amazing! The switch is for deploying (abwurf = Throwing out) the trailing antenna (schleppantenna) a long wire that trailed behind the aircraft in the slipstream and gave long range HF communications by Morse code, as opposed to the vhf (UKW in German) short range communication that was the mainstay of the Luftwaffe . Excellent find! :)
The best part is the anticipation. Never know what history can tell you. Not much to find here in the US though. Great videos btw!
.recently I discovered a pillbox tower so I had a look around UA-cam for a good ww2 relics channel and found u so u have gained a subscriber
jack minton Appreciate Your comment and sub. ThanksGreetings from WW2HH
I really enjoy watching your videos, when i should be revising for my A-Levels! After watching Band of Brothers again, I'm really enthusiastic about doing stuff like this myself in the future! You, and Band of Brothers have influenced me to do this later, so have you got any tips? :) - James
More awesome finds! You have a really history rich area there!!
Amazing find, and great video as always. Already looking forward for the next.
You are amazing what you do recording saving our history for of us always looking at your videos great stuff my friend so 😎
Thank you kindly
Its so fun to see how happy you are! :) thx for sharing it with us
Great Video. Very Nice Find on all That wonderfull WW2 History. Very Exciting.
I came across this video and so happy I did. I have subscribed to you.
Love to watch you finding thing from history. you do a great job at telling us what you
are doing and what you find. This kind of stuff I would like to be finding too.
Hope you find something real big. All the best from Toronto Canada.
I do like your videos. As I am a WW2 reenactor and from England I do think you are in a fortunate position to be able to go searching for relics in your area though you would have been in an unfortunate position 70 years ago!
12:25 i think Its a Box for cigarettes.... maybe
+Elias Hartmann it's a card holder
yes,it is
+Elias Hartmann genau das ist es
that what thought to
+kungmeister a holder for ur credit card and other shit man i know it's a long timesince u asked but i got the notification now
A man in my street here in England had a P38 he took from a dead German after D Day. When the gun laws changed in the 60's he threw it in the canal near Gloucester. Love your movies.
interessting story and thanks for sharing. Greetings from WW2HH
Love your videos. Excellent find on the Walther holster. Who knows next time out you might find the pistol.
For those asking how he is picking up coal. Coal contains various minerals that will ding a detector. Same thing happens with sand on a beach. Coal also contains Mercury which is a metal.
fantastic find with the holster, ammo and clip. I am aware that they were issued to officers and non commissioned officers. I wonder if when the war had come to an end, the owner discarded it under the rock? Pilots were also issued the side arms as well. It's a shame the weapon was not there, as if it was a luger, it would be worth a penny. They stopped producing the luger as it was too costly and changed it for a similar model during the war. Thanks for bringing history alive, really interesting. Keep going mate!
Peter Henry it's a magazine. A clip goes in a M1 Garand, bolt action rifle, broom handle Mauser and certain WWI and pre war hand guns.
Great video plus really nice holster find you all ways seem to dig up little gems
Another outstanding bit of history from the History Hunter. Great Stuff... keep a digging... My best to you and your family. Our daughter is here tonight spending the night (she brought our part time dog down for us to keep) before she has to start her trips to China this month. She is a Flight Attendant... Again, keep up the good detecting of WW II History...
+chevywheels56 cool job she has , looking over the world. Thanks chevy
The food container lid with key for rolling it up was a cool find. I can imagine a soldier sitting in his foxhole opening his meal for that day. Seeing the different food containers in your videos made me think, did they have containers that had crackers or biscuits in them? I thought the cartridges you found on the surface were in good shape considering they had been on the surface all these years. The antenna cover and searchlight rod were interesting finds. Things I had never seen before until I started watching your videos. After the great find on the holster, did you continue searching to see if you could find the gun or have you gone back searching hoping to find the gun? Very nice adventure in this video.
yes sometimes i imagine a soldier sitting there and then the alarm comes on and the container just thrown aside and into battle he went. Thanks for watching Anthony.
More great finds. Thanks for letting us see them.
yo yo honey sings songs
New sub here from the u.k, Congrats, Video was great :-)
Awesome stuff!! Thank you for sharing all this wonderful stuff. I'm jealous. Amazing adventure for you every time..
More to come!
The plane parts translate to "Caution shedding for trailing antenna" very rare and brilliant find !
Wonderful way to learn history! Thanks for uploading!
yo yo yo honey sings songs
found your vid and loved it right away, subbed with BIG thumbs up
Hey !!....This is a very enjoyable video. I admire your passion for "detecting".
Great work finding the three parts from the Walther P-38 holster !!!!
Thanks from "Aussie Pete" :-)
Keep searching that area,you may yet find the pistol.Nice job.
Amazing. Thanks for sharing. That looks like lots of fun.
Very cool adventure and thanks for sharing history with us.
Finding the holster parts plus the airplane parts must have you floating on air. Plus this pistol ammo to go with earlier finds. Really good hunting!
12:11 That is an issued or traded cigarette holder, you'd stack them and open it horizontally. it often came with a belt loop depending on era and brand. hope this helps. :)
Amazing search man i appreciate your work !! i'm into these kind of stuff i love history and the old things !! i could just do this every single day man its interesting and mind blowing ...Thank you sir.
great channel. i really enjoy your videos .thanks for taking the time to share your finds. good job and good luck.
i thank You for watching and Greetings from WW2HH
I might get you to send me some of that coal to put in my grandchildren’s Christmas Stockings lol. I wonder if the handle on theses shovels you find broke and instead of repairing them they just threw them away. I think you’ve found a lot of good finds. The little boxes looks like a business card box. Wow, the searchlight part was interesting to see. What a fantastic find on the holster and even being able to see the markings on it. Good job my friend. What a great find on all the ammunition in place. It was a great day for you.
Great day outside and thanks Anthony.
Great video, and congrats on a superb find!
Great finds man! That Walter P38 Holster is awesome! Keep it up!
11:38 - Cigarette Case
I´m loving your vids,especially your display of addiction on the WaffenAmtAdler ;)
Thanks Erik and Greetings to You from WW2HH
Having found the holster, extra magazine, and ammunition it would seem as though there is the chance that maybe the P38 it once held may be lurking in the area!! As always, thank you for the videos.
Great find with the holster.Those sell for quite a bit. That would look good with my P38
really enjoyed your video, wish i had a location near me that was rich in history like your location, was sat glued to your video hoping you would complete the P38 set and find the pistol, really hope you find it. good luck and happy hunting :-)
Great film, great commentary, very informative.
Spectacular finds gun belt 2nd half so cool and bunch of live ammo.
Totally agree and thanks my friend :)
What an amazing find on the holster parts - I am surprised they were in such good condition.
I have preserved the parts and will hopefully sew the pieces together later when they have softened more..
WW2HH
WW2HistoryHunter If you get the time, I would love to see you do a short piece on how you treat leather items that you dig up for preservation and restoration.
Outstanding video, keep searching, wish I was there to join you! Cool.
Was the fly tasty? :P. Great video, BTW ;). I felt like I was there when you found the gun holster. I'm really happy for ya. I hope you can find the gun!!
Greetings from south Africa awesome finds and love your vids .........
Move some of the rocks, maybe P38 hidden underneath, most likely barrel and frame were separated and thrown in different driections.Great finds, leather on the holster is very thick hence it serving outside, but still amazing that it did survive.
Great finds. The pistol itself has to be nearby somewhere. Hope you find it as well. You have a very enjoyable channel. Take Care Jeff
Awsome finds as usual! What if you find the gun in a couple of years.... That would be mindblowing!!
Thanks for sharing these moments on youtube, cant wait for next episode!
that is the exiting part. You never know what will be NeXT.
Thanks for watching.
WW2HH
you are sooo lucky! you even got me really excited! congratulations with the finds!
maybe history just felt like sharing to the individual passing by ?
Greetings from WW2HH
well, history really likes you, that's for sure
Sir, you just got yourself another sub. Thank you for the content you post on your channel. ;)
+Angelo Jemina Appreciate that Angelo
“Holy Madonna” !!
Or ‘Holy Mushrooms’ as the captions sometimes changes it to 🤣
Fantastic adventure as always HH !
Ha ha , Thanks for that Gemma and keep smiling :)
No wonder you went back to the site around 20 times HH. It is laden with WW2 treasures. Even though it can be tough work at times, you really seem to take great pleasure in metal detecting. It is a good thing you didn't fall backwards down the plateau. The Luftwaffe switch cover for a HE177 Greif cockpit was an amazing find and in great shape. Also, can't forget the 3 pieces of leather of a 1940 Walter P38 Pistol Holster. You could see the Luftwaffe symbol quite clearly. Thanks for the pic so we can see what it would like like in it's original form. Did you use sheep oil on it to keep it supple? Yes finding the magazine and live cartridges in a span of 3 yrs in the same area and then the holster brings things together. Wonder what happened to the soldier who carried that weapon? I bet one could go back there and still find more valuable treasures. Thank you HH, continue to stay safe please.
that hill probably has even more stories to share with us later Laura. More to come :)
Good video Hunter!!! Great finds my friend...
Hoss , you keep sharing Your wonderful videos of good old oldies . love them !
Thanks for looking in and Greetings from WW2HH
WW2HistoryHunter Thank you buddy!! I sure will...
New sub from Australia! Wish we had this sort relics around here! keep it up :)
Thanks M8 :)
Greetings from WW2HH
Love the video, but I like all of your videos. Love the opportunity to watch the finds from world War two.
John Ballard I do appreciate You watching and commenting.Greetings from WW2HH
Inside the holster there are signs of rust, I think someone found this before you, ripped the holster apart and just took the pistol. It would explain why the holster parts were scattered but close.
it is quite natural that there is rust there as the item has been out in the nature for a very long time :)
Thanks for watching WW2HH
You have an astonishing memory bank & real insight into your relic hunting, Iv got to sing Happy Birthday just to remember my name....keep up the first class work.....Eck.
m8 yet again u amaze us all thank you very much for sharing your advenchure with us and i really hope u find the gun just wish i could see it all first hand like u but its allso good see it through your eye's so thank you again m8 look forward to your next video
I wil do my best and look for it :)
Greetings
WW2HH
Funny thing is, the pistol and holster we had when I was with the Bundeswehr were pretty much the same. In fact they were identical, except for all those stamps, Reichsadler and Waffenamt numbers. That was about 40 years after WW II and we still used the same pistol and machine gun. Quality never goes out of style. :)
+Non-Prolific 1/35th Scale Model Builder agree. quality will live long. Thanks for watching.
I'm very happy for you and for history!
Very interesting :-) I think the box you found on minute 12 is for cigs.
Greetings from Germany :-)
i love the video. i selv a big ww2 interestet person and if i ever a going to find things like that, my heads gonna explode
Another excellent video from you!
If you can treat that leather you can probably be able to have it stitched back to its original condition... very nice find. I usually dont mess with pieces but when its all there just seperated, its worth the try
well what can i say but fantastic finds all you need now is to look under the stones for the gun
Beautiful holster! Great find!
I love it!
Nice video & finds
The holster is a great find, nice!!!!
GL&HH Don
WW2HistoryHunter i actually have a walther p38 original in holster with the stamps i found it at a re-actment
Wow, I thought the silver box was a cigarillo box at first, maybe too narrow for normal cigarettes. The holster find was amazing.............. its not just the fact its an item, and also its historical in what its purpose was for, made for the war, but to me its even more incredible that at some point in time, a baby was born who grew up to be a man who went to war, and carried that holster and weapon. What happened to him? Did he survive? etc etc........ those relics, especially the personal ones such as clothing and holsters, cups and plates etc have even more symbolic interest to me.
That may be a bit deep, but thats what history feels like to me. I love watching these videos exactly for that purpose.
have a great next adventure.
Great comment and appreciate you watching. Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter
