Haha
Lol you had me dying mate, you deserve my like
If you know how the eastern front was you would know that there wasn't a lot of time for laying mines.
Seems so peaceful and a relaxing place..just imagine all the horrors that field saw 75-80 years ago.
So crazy man
Actually 82yrs to be precise
@@sscwalabanker no. That would make it 1935. WW2 started in 1939. So 82.
@@Dan-cp2nh he edited hit comment after being "precise"
@@mog_3825 no idea how I missed that😂 thanks.
My grandpa served in ww2, he gave me a lot of cool items. He passed away 9 years ago but I will never forget the stories he told me. He said that after ww2 he couldn't bbq anymore because he would have panic attacks because it reminded him of the concentrationcamps.
He gave me a chest full of interesting things, from both the Allies and the Nazis. He gave me an original Nahkampfspange Silver (30 days hand-to-hand combat of the Germans). Different buttons, socks, shoelaces, postcards and even bullets.
He has given several Nazi ribbons, and medals which I now have hanging in my room on a special wall in remembrance of WW2. I loved my grandfather very much, I hope he is with all his friends in heaven now, and they will protect us from a better place. Amen.
What i wouldn't give for a relic from ww2
Bruh just go to Germany and get one...the German people are😘
May he rest in peace❤️
Don’t lie
That MP40 needs to be put in an electrolysis bath for about 24 hours to lift all the rust.
I'd guess that once you've done that, some of the inner parts might still be operable.
I bet with some careful rust removal and as long as the firing pin is intact, that would be firing once more
That would be super awesome. Those guns are great. I just bought an MP40 22LR and unfortunately it’s not automatic like the original thanks to very stupid laws. Id love to find one!
@@twentysecondcenturywoman since the mp40 had a slow rate of fire you could probably simulate full auto anyway hahah
The corrosion on it is so bad that I doubt you could make it operable with just a bath. Even if it was operable, I wouldn’t trust firing it. You’d need to replace some parts with civilian MP40s, but that would be close to impossible to do in Europe if you don’t live in Switzerland.
@@twentysecondcenturywoman You can always make your own laws. Depends on the country you live in and will for liberty.
He's gonna find Hitler's actual dead corpse and be like: "Oi, it's pretty good condition. Another one for the collection."
Then he should be looking in Argentina
There is nothing left of Hitler anymore. His ashes are gone, and the piece of his jawbone is gone. It was confirmed that it belonged to Hitler. Stop conspirating and wake up. The earth is also not flat, and the moon landing was real. Retire please.
@Duglet Yes, and the moon landing wasn't confirmed either. You probably also believe the earth is flat, and that Paul McCartney died in 1966.
Fortunately, Hitler had ordered his nazi member to burn his body so soviet couldn't recognize his remains .

Just found this channel. Seems amazing. I'm interested in WW2 and archaeology generally, so I will spend many hours watching your videos. I actually gasped when you dug up the MP40. To imagine the history behind the objects really makes it all so deeply fascinating.

@Chris Donahue its in great condition and most important in one whole piece
9:22 thats a german "Mutterkreuz" you got it when you had 6 or more children. If you had this badge you got more food .
Oh you allready found out .
Yes but it was specifically the silver one, there were different versions for different numbers of kids (silver was 6-7).
Yeah my great-uncle had one, he was a British soldier, hate to think how he got hold of it.
probably lot of bones in that area too. soldiers don't just leave their weapons and bullets laying around a battlefield.
I’m pretty sure they do, when they die
Sawcon Deez nuts I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what he meant by his comment... Jesus Christ
Dylan Leaman Anderson yeah, my bad. I thought they were two different statements
The area they were in where they found the Russian button looks like an impact crater. I wonder how many soldiers were killed all at the same time in that area...it would explain all of the personal effects, loaded weapons, parts and ammo just laying around. I can only imagine how brutal the fighting must have been there. Glad I missed it.
When the germans lotst the war they buried there equipment so the other countrys couldnt have them
It looks like fun, but of course, you know that you are playing around amongst 70-year-old explosives.
They might not work anymore beacuse of all the presure put on em
Jumpin Nemo, a land mine is kinda like a gun put pressure on the trigger and it go boom but on a land mine pressure is the worst thing to put on a land mine
Jumpin Nemo land mines from WWII still explode today, if you step on a late WWII mine it might just explode.
Cambodia is still full of them, and we are talking about the 70s. Anti personnel mines do go off easily but vehicle mines or tank mines require a little more weight. With that being said, let's imagine there's 200 pounds over the mine of dirt, that would only require a hundred more... rough estimate because it definitely varies on type but 300+ is a good approximation.. but I have seen 240+ pound men set off tank mines.
WW2 isn't that far off. Mines were operated mechanically, so for sure some might work.
How amazing putting your hands on these actual Soviet and German relics. Incredible.
I’m from Peru , and my family is German Austria, the metal you founded is exactly what we have. My oma ( grandmother) told us they have to had a tree generation study before they give us the diploma and the metal , both were signed by Hitler , we keep this in my family memories, my grandfather knew Hitler from Austria and fought in war one , he meets Hitler again in 1938 and 39 , he said his personality change after surviving. The orange gas , ya. Thank you for preserver our history
Que gran historia hermano peruano🤝
Wow, bro thats a crazy story
Steps to take when finding an MP40:
1. Dig up MP40
2. Clean MP40
3. "What MP40? I didn't find anything out here."
Oglethorpe Macgilicurty right
There's no way that thing will ever work again sadly. Way too badly corroded
Exactly.
@@MrRedeyedJedi it doesnt matter. Its still real mp40.

Really like how you show the items cleaned up next to how were found or what they might look like from original photos Also like the captioning giving a little background on some of the items. All very great and interesting details. Thank you
There must have been some horrendous fighting there for so much hardware to be left laying around. Really amazing.
man you dont even know, largest war ever fought. 24 million soldiers died, its so sad to think about those amazing guns just rotting away.
It was a pretty good gunfight, that's for sure
@@johnnyliu7105 Incredible to ponder. It is hard for me to imagine in my minds eye one-million-people. An epoc of stories those poor souls could tell.
The Mütter's cross of honor badge was fascinating, which leads me to believe it was a civilian fleeing with the Wehrmacht. I can't be certain but I think I have an idea of where they are, and it was the sight of a battlefield where German soldiers and civilians alike were trapped in an encirclement while they were desperately trying to flee from the Red Army, and it happened at the very end of the war, but that's all I will say.

The mp40 is in unbelievable condition.
Thats the power of German Engineering
And swedish metal
It was kinda in between under and above the dirt so not too much of it can get totally dirty but still good condition for like 70 80 years ago
So what do you do when you find a complete MP40? I mean it obviously won’t work/operate anymore but is there any baggage that goes along with it?
Scott Livingston you never know that until you clean it
10:05 it just gave me goosebumps
Hitler's signature...
This is impressive and incredible to think that you just have to bend down to pick up some WWI and WWII treasures in the European soil. History is still so close and present to us here everywhere around. All those relics mean dead men right under. Like the buckles, pins and buttons
I just repaired 3 roofs only 3! And found a pair of ww2 hungarian boots, a canteen and a helmet with a near full cover of og paint.
Every piece he found, he know what he finds. This guy needs so be a historicteacher lol
He probably find it and puts it back.
He he he , this is intresting 😂
Almost like he knows what hes going to dig up...
That because he put them there

Foda pra Crl
In the forest near my town in Poland there are several large bomb-made holes and you can clearly see the remains of some trenches. Do you think that there could be something interesting in that forest?
Definitely I would buy a metal detector and check it out
of course, you should try if you can.
If you can clearly see it and it’s near a town then I don’t think there’s any chance you will find anything other than maybe a bullet casing, some food tins, dishes, or other things like that. If it is clearly visible and near a town then everything of value or of much importance would have been found and taken long ago. By all means go ahead and do it, you might find a cool thing or two, but I would suggest not getting your hopes up of finding any weapons, badges, or helmets or anything like that
YEAH, let us know how your little adventure went.
Guys what if he found a bomb and died?😐
Strange that you found a Mothers Cross in a battlefield.
What
I agree. Those are civilian medals. I can’t imagine why one would be out there. Maybe they planted it out there for more clicks.
@@stevetoad10 I agree and that was my thinking as well when I saw this. Anything is possible but its highly doubtful a Mother's Cross would be found on a battlefield.
Heraclion12 mother might have died of natural causes and a son took it into the battle as a way of remembering her.
@@Euro2005mc my thinking too.
Cross of Honour of the German Mother. Commonly known as the mothers cross.
Wow! The mp40 is an amazing find, very lucky to find one complete. Well done.
Yes this Mother Cross got any mother who had more than seven children and it was connected to extra payments for the family by the government.
@Visual Vodka I also wonder if its worth more or less than a functioning one
@Gaz 00 operation Seelöwe seems closer than it used to. Also, what did he done to the gun?don't you dare to say he handed it to the polis'...
Mother???? , fatherland!
@Duglet That depends on the quality of the cross. A bronze cross was awarded to mothers with 4-5 children, A silver if she had 6-7 children and gold to mothers with 8 or more. In this case it seems to be a silver one so 6-7 should be correct.
Amazing! I would love to see the MP40 and the bayonets in depth when cleaned up!
ok, this is the BEST video I've watched on WWII metal detecting, so enjoyable to watch. Thank you.
I’d love to go there and metal detect someday
Im pretty sure there are 70 year old active mines, so just dont kaboom
@@illustratedoztrich9123 a metal detector should pick that up. Just be cautious when digging. I would dig around the area it was going off as to not put pressure on the land mine.
@@godforever27 Well Id still like a good ol kaboom
@@illustratedoztrich9123 you would like it... well that's not good if someone got hurt..
Me to
A young man probably carried his dead mother's cross that was willed to him in his pocket while in battle on the Eastern front
@T0xic thats more likely. I doubt she was dead. The son might have been the only one that went to the war since she got that cross for having many children but she could only give it to one. Or shes got several crosses.
Trully sad anyways. And nothing ever came about those wars, nothing good. Just a major lose of children.
Nitroracing71 Ho-Boa your right about that but still he was a nazi so I don’t feel bad for him
@@User-ju1xj nazi killed 6million which isnt proved yet , soviets killed 60million in ussr +40mil in china
America is fighting every war and probably crossed nazi limit i guess , so who is the bad guy . History is written by victors
@@kkmemes9350 The most unspoken truth of the modern era. The "offering" is part of the catechism of the modern day foundational myth of the West, after all. God bless the departed, who fought and died only to have their memory defiled by the spiteful children of Satan.
It’s a Mother’s Cross in Silver. On a battlefield? Interesting.
Thought the same, almost too strange..
Most likely a gift from a soldiers mother, maybe as a gift to remember her or something like that, the medal was issued 1938 before the war started, so likely that it was a parting gift of sorts.
@@fin4289 yes or his mother had been killed in a bombing raid so a way to remember her.
It's crazy to think of the story behind each item... who wore it or who used it. And, finding so many German and Soviet items together, they must have fought and died right there. I would be scared of finding human remains.
These are the types of videos I don’t mind ads on.
Its amazing
So true
DeathKreger9MM i want this type pf content to be rewarded
These places are like a time machine, really incredible.
Doesn't anyone wonder why the mother's cross would be found on a battlefield?
@@bigf2222 maybe it belonged to some nurse at the front?? Who knows...
@@bigf2222that was my question as well. Perhaps a mother gave it to her son for luck?
For those who are doubtful over the mother's cross. Think to the late stages of the war, germ any was desperate and near enough everyone was conscripted to fight. It's possible that a mother was conscripted to fight or that the cross was given to either a son or a sibling as something of a good luck charm, in short there are many reasons why such a piece would be there.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. This is exactly my reasoning too. 30.000 civilians and 90.000 german soldiers were encircled here and on the run for the Soviets. It's understandable one doesnt want to get caught with such a medal.
Another amazing video! Thank you so much for sharin' all your adventures and finds. I can't say enough good things about your channel, thank you again and stay safe.
Thanks John, I appreciate that! Likewise!
typically when allied forces found a weapon they would throw the bolt away from the weapon still a common practice today this keeps the enemy from reusing the weapon. If found by strageler enemy combatant also break the stock
I can imagine that they might also break the stocks against a tree, most likely causing the butt portion of the stock to go flying, explaining the lone buttplates found with no other stock-related metal parts.
Germans themselves did this during WW2 but with their own guns. They would remove bolts and throw them as far as the could when surrendering
Deimos I didn’t know that one thanks for the info
the fact you found a MP40 and a Swatsika award is AMAZING
Helo
WHY THEY DONT FOUND TIGER 1 AND PANZER 4

Wow. The complete MP40 is insane.
Europe in general just has amazing opportunities for metal detecting. Rich history. Id love to find some ww2 relics. Hold a piece of history in the palm of my hands. Knowing the last person to hold it was a soldier
At 15:08, I was expecting him to shoot the gun.
That medal at 9:02 is known as the "Mother's Cross", and I'm certain there weren't many mothers out there on the battlefield. Needless to say, the German soldier was probably carrying this in honor of a mother who had already died, probably in one of the allied bombing raids.
more likely a civilian retreating with German forces who was killed there.
Or a keepsake his wife gave him to remember her by while out at war.
It might've also been from a civilian fleeing with the army, which was common in the late stages of the war. I can't be certain, but I think I have an idea of where they are, and it was a battlefield where German soldiers and civilians alike were trying to desperately escape from the Red Army, but they became trapped in an encirclement.
Imagine the stories that lie here. So sad that they found so much stuff from people that died there. You didn’t just leave your bolt laying in a field.
If u ran out of ammo Yea u won't carry additional weight if there's no use for it lol
Dullear087 FTW you get what I’m trying to say. You can connect many things they found with situations in people being killed.
Dullear087 FTW if you ran out of ammo you wouldn’t throw away your gun... you would retreat with it to get more ammo. Guns aren’t cheap and in unlimited supply
What probably happened is the rest corroded away.

From the states here... I wonder what is required to be able to detect the eastern front....

@@joejarrell2578 Its an iffy topic... as long as you report explosives, close your holes und report stuff like Dog Tags and Soldiers remains you should be fine... but you wont get an official permission.
Just wish they'd take a little more time digging around an object before pulling it out of the ground.
Awesome work, going beyond of just finding scrap in the ground.
These are artifacts.
These should be considered
archeological digs.
American metal detector groups: look what we found!
These guys: hold my beer.
I agree with Pete Peterson below about throwing the bolts away. In Iraq, Whenever I found an AK 47 or whatever other weapon, I would always take the bolt and put it in my pocket. By the time it was time to redeploy, I had a whole box of them I tossed in the burn barrel.
The MP40 is an amazing discovery, that can be restored.
As incredible a find it is, more than likely it's too badly corroded to be restored to working order. There are so many parts you'd have to replace, you'd effectively just have a new MP40. A shame really, it's a beautiful weapon.
I agree, it won't be the same without the original parts, but it'll still be the MP40
I would have cryed when i found an MP40. Amazing video guys!!👍
The MP 40 find was absolutely insane!
The harmonica gave me chills
Swedish Uchiha yea

@@capitenjoye6988 also, was ich vermute, ist, dass die ein Ehrenabzeichen für eine Mutter/Frau war. Die Mütter haben bei dem 3.,5. und 7. Kind so ein Kreuz bekommen. Ziel war es, dass möglichst viele Kinder geboren werden, damit Hitler aus ihnen Soldaten machen kann.

Finding that mp40 gave me chills. Loved the condition of that silver and blue medal. Wow!
Great episode
Findings on Eastern front often hits me when thinking how bad situation must have been at the end of the war. Both sides suffered, Germans more so because not many prisoners were taken from either side. If they were, future for Germans was probably worse than instant death... Finds like K98 bolts, their bayonets, Gewehr 43 and MP40 in good condition, badge and the rest show fighting was fierce with many dead soldiers.
They are great finds anyway, i hope it shows people what war is about. Good job guys!
