Amazing especially the Eagle map markers! I hope he gave you one! At first i thought they were YOUR finds lo You deserve to find a stock pile of artifacts like this! What a haul of history! So cool he shared it with you and you with us! Thanks!
This is the most incredible metal detecting video I have ever watched and it gets better and better every time I rewatch it. So much amazing history that can be preserved from this one site alone. I found an American Civil War camp site similar in the sense that there was a bit of every thing but it wasn’t nearly as big.
I can't help but think of all the poor, young bastards who possessed these things and probably died. Great vid and great comments (not too many trolls).
Those two piece razors are still being manufactured and sold today from a company in Germany. That bowl from Finland might very well have been used as a lather bowl. All you need to do is to find the shaving brush and mirror. Thanks for showing this find.
WOW!! Your little man must be so ecstatic as well as yourself,so much to find wish i was there with you :-) looking forward to the next one thank you so much for sharing this exquisite place.
Such an amazing location and incredible war material everywhere. Reminds me of a dump that they would have discarded unwanted items and trash. Trash seems odd nomenclature since these are treasures with stories to tell!! Fantastic and thanks so much for sharing with us all ...
A virtual treasure trove of items from the ordinary day to day life of a soldier to the rare items not often seen. Love your adventures!!! Thank You for sharing!!!
I've only just found your videos and have become OBSESSED with them! The history behind it all. knowing men and women used some of it to kill and aid the fight. Fascinating stuff!!!!
These relics should be preserved... I enjoy your work... hope you can make some sort of museum so anyone can watch live... thanks for sharing these clips!!!
Looking forward to part 3, this site was amazing. The ammunition pouches looked like they could have been restored with a bit of work and some leather treatment. Good hunting
You’re so fortunate to be able to explore these locations, I envy you. I live near Gettysburg Pennsylvania where the civil war took place but it’s protected no metal detecting or digging allowed
the us govt thinks they own every square inch of their imaginary boarders, dont want any unwanted, unscripted history leaking out. freedom is a bad word to the ruling class
WW2HistoryHunter no, thank you, I watch a couple every night. I actually shared these with my father before he passed. He loved them too. Thanks again.
Another amazing site. Incredible that the leather of some of the artefacts is still in reasonably good condition after so many years buried. The little eagle - what a treasure! To me, this site needs a proper archeology survey to catalogue all the finds for posterity. Can't wait for part 3!
historyhunter...wow,that was just amazing.i didn't want the vid to stop.there are so meany great things there.im speechless.cant thankyou enough for letting us see these finds.just totaly breathtaking .meany thanks.wishing you guys a very merry Xmas and all the very very best for 2018.keep up your amazing channel.totaly love it.kc Keith. scotland.peace to you.
This camp is so amazing! Thank you so much for sharing 💥💥💪🏻 Wish we could team up and dig some days there😅 Many greetings from the Huertgenforest in Germany AC-Adventures
One question. Is it german Death Camp where they murdered people or just resting place after the job was done? I can't recognise? Thank you for info !!
WW2HistoryHunter i am from Sweden and have been watching your adventures a lot and I am so pleased to see your work! I'd love to try out the digging myself 😊
Thanks! Another amazing WW2 history video by the best . Did you ever end up taking EE with you here? Very interesting place, so many artifacts. Hopefully, some can be passed on our placed in a museum. Thank you HH.
I would hire a truck so i could take EVERYTHING home, but unfortunatly i have to do it with rusty casings here in Frissia, verry interressting place and a verry nice video i always enjoy it Gl and hh Greetings from the Netherlands, Frissia
Awesome video!!! Very informative and presented in a very interesting manner. Thank you so much for your research and taking the time to share with us. A new subscriber you have. Keep up the good work!!!👍🙂
13:24 is saying "STARK ?KONZENTRIERTE? QUALITÄTSZAHNPASTA, Angenehm im Geschmack" (High ?concentrated? quality toothpaste, bland taste). This toothpaste is made by BIOX and you can still buy BIOX here in Germany. There is too much dirt on the right side, but the Text is going on there. :)

Interesting to see the finnish souvenir that a soldier had discarded or lost. Such quantity! Multiples of same pieces. Keep up the good documentating. Looking forward to next instalment. Be well 👏✌
The cigarette piece you found looks like part of a smoking pipe my dad had. It came apart for cleaning. This is a great location. Did you see any writings on the uniforms? How long had he been digging there? That a lot of items coming up out of the ground. All that ammunition is unbelievable. Seems to be a good many personal items from the soldiers. You were very lucky to meet this young man.
If Carlsberg made History sites!............Probably the BEST History site in the world! Rubbish tips are ALWAYS a superb cross section of life in the WW2 timeframe. 4:35 I cant BELIEVE your luck!
Wow, so amazing, must have been a huge camp or transitional area. Wish i could come on an expedition with you. Thankyou for sharing. Cheers from 🇦🇺, 👌🏻👍🏻
@@WW2HistoryHunter you are incredibly lucky that your able to visit these amazing places. There's nothing like that down here. Closest we got to W.W.2 was the Japanese bombed northern Australia & sent a couple of mini submarines down south. W.W. 2 history is definitely all around Europe. I see many videos on UA-cam of hunters finding items on the eastern front/Russia. What country do you live? Cheers. 👌🏻👍🏻.
The amount of artifacts and treasures in that location is totally insane. Museums and museums of items. Are you still in contact with this guy? Any plans on taking EE to this spectacular place? 4 years later, I wonder if he is still unearthing the treasure trove of history there?
An old German Solider once told me to always be sure to polish the backs of your shoes, because that's the first thing people see when you are walking away.
@@tonyamiller2732 Hey there! A fellow Michigander here in St Clair! Both of me Granddad's fought in the big 1!! The American was stationed in merry old England. He had his own meat shop, since he was a butcher all he did 16 hours a day was amputations! How horrible! My German Gramp was a medic. He was 1 of the few to get the hell out of Russia after the war. I think it was 5-6 yr's. My doc collects WWII stuff When I saw an SS Dagger, I instantly got the chills!
Thank you for another interesting video, Hans, you always come up with some great stuff. One question, what is the aluminum tube with the red markings at the center of the introduction picture? Itlooks like an ole flare cartridge.
For me the 'Bakerlite' eagle was the most interesting find. How many of the map plotting devices survived I wonder? Great video very interesting, thanks for posting :)
I echo your thoughts - the "Bakelite" eagle is indeed the most interesting, and like a rare Chess-piece, I can only imagine to now be highly collectible and historically valuable. n/b: Bakelite was one of the earliest forms of 20th century plastics, and domestic items made of this material have recently become coveted by period collectors.
3:45 I think it's a 7x57mm roundtip for a M98 Mauser is a first-generation smokeless powder rimless bottlenecked rifle cartridge. It is known as 275 Rigby in the United Kingdom. Pretty cool finds and love your findings. 👍🏼
Wow amazing so many different pieses that bakalite eagle never seen any thing like it you got me suspence for part three wonderful video loved it thank you so much
There's several junkyards in Belgium I found, saw a German Panther D/T just sitting there with a VW Bug on the turret, a lot of shot up U.S. vehicles scattered, gun tractors, 3/4 ton ambulances, weapons carriers, etc.. I noticed the .45 caliber ammo, those are .45 caliber ACP rounds not necessarily meaning Colt ammo, looks like they were on speed loaders for either a Tommy or grease gun. U.S. paratroopers sometimes carried the M1917. 45 caliber revolver too, I fired one talk about kicked! My M1911A1 is a Springfield. 45, dated 1943 the thumb buster, amazing all that history just dumped, I noticed the construction vehicle tire prints in the dirt.
@@WW2HistoryHunter Winchester and Remington made the .38 and .45 rounds too, I don't care much for the Winchester ammo cuz it fouls out, burns gritty, Remington is more expensive but burns cleaner. Springfield also made the .3006 ,.30 being the caliber 06 being the year the pointed bullet became issue replacing the .30 03 round nose. I had the M1903A3 made by Remington, stock split and bolt wore loose, could've replaced em not even realizing but I was younger then. Keep safe out there, change them socks regularly use foot powder. Feet, eyes and teeth, most important tools of the trade
Wow, that is a great find. Eagerly awaiting part 3 and more information about the site. Have you explored around the area more and possibly found remnants of the camp? The camp/base, may have been captured by an allied force and then demolished and bull dozed under, that's why, IMHO, why there is so much good ammunition and every day items that were still usable there. Waiting for 3. ;0)
Great vids, keep up the good work! I would love it when you could tell us a bit more about the areas. I figure you won't give away the spot, but just a general idea of the country, region and combatants so that it comes a bit more "alive".
Greetings from China. I have been living in Germany, Munich for a while. very interested in German history. your video is so interesting. 谢谢你的分享！Danke schoen
What an amazing find!! What is he going to do with such a huge amount of items? Were you able to acquire anything for yourself? Thanks again for this amazing video!
Hello from Germany... Very interesting video... I think this place has a lot of potential for found some radio-parts such like tubes or bakelit-cases... I now that most hunters of ww2 things don't talk about there places... That is something I understand but if you can let me know, it will be really great for me!
@ 8:12 it is called a bayonet scabbard, that the bayonet slides into. It looks like you have dug into their garbage pit. The red round in the partial mg belt was probably a tracer round.
Looks like a massive burn pit. Here in the USA I know of a particular site that has a similar assortment of items except they’re WW1 era , on the outskirts of an old and still used military base.
I have watched this video several times. All the artifacts are so wonderful. The 45 is a 45 acp. That's what was used in the wars. 45 Colt is what the old west cowboys shot. Just a FYI so I have failed you this month. I was going to buy a true German K-98 from WW2 but it was so expensive. The guy wanted $1200 for it. I just couldn't spend the money on it. Instead I bought the stuff to make my AR-15 convert to 9mm. I joined a pistol club so I can shoot when ever I want but they don't allow rifle calibers there. I wanted to shoot my AR-15 there so I bought all the stuff to rebuild it. I will have to wait till next month. I have a line on some German/Chech K-98's from 1945 from just after the war so they are in better shape. They are for sale for $499.00. I think I may jump on one of them in March. My birthday is on the 5th. I will be 51 years young. I'm going to announce a give a way when I hit 200 subs. I know it sounds pathetic but I haven't been that busy and my videos are not that professional like yours are. I think I just get flustered when I'm trying to talk because I have a thousand things running through my head when I'm shooting video. I'm trying to make the videos with a higher quality. I have shot the same video 4 times and I still don't like it. I have to get the ums and the lost train of thoughts under control.
Awesome! Reminds me that maybe the reason for all this stuff in one large area was beacause when the war ended with Germany's defeat, all the soldiers just left everything behind as there was no reason to take any of it with them as the war was now over. So they decided to get back home with just the clothes they were wearing and what little they could take with them and leave everything else behind. If the Americans or possibly Russians had captured all those soldiers at that place at the end of the war then probably most all the ammunition would have been destroyed or blown up. So being that all the ammunition left behind without being destroyed, then that tells me that the soldiers just abandoned that place to go back home before they were captured at the end of the war.I could be wrong on my theory but that's what it looks like to me.But awesome finds and another Awesome video. Can't wait till you put out #3. Looking forward to it.!
The round tip 7.92x57 (8mm) round you shown is an early pre ww1 ammunition that is lower power and slightly smaller around diameter to be shot through karabiner 88 "commission" rifle(especially if the markings headstamp prove that), that was generally loaded with a five round enbloc clip that ejected through the bottom, where some were later converted to feed with regular k98 stripper clips, but many of them had the smaller diameter bore of .319 and not .323 like in the k98, so it was dangerous to shoot k98 ammunition in the kar 88 if it had an original barrel. By late war, many second line troops were issued any weapons left around, like obsolete weapons, and of course captured weapons like norwegian krag rifles, carcanos(italian), mas 36 rifles(french), even captured weapons off americans like the colt .45 pistols which is probably why you see colt .45 acp rounds. It shows the desparate situation the Germans were in at the late stage of the war with this find, truly historical. I have some books on this sort of subject that I bought over the years talking of late war issuing of captured and obsolete weapons, and the sad truth is that alot of Hitler Youth and Volksturm troops were issued obsolete or captured weapons, both of which had very limited ammunition to draw from.I figure you were indicating this is a late war encampment/staging area, and of retreating troops.
Also, after seeing the video part of the medical book part, I was already thinking that the large numbers of uniform pieces seen all together, is usually indicative of field hospital signs, usually I have read of this sort of thing, and uniforms and boots taken off injured soldiers, the dead, etc will be found in piles,....this is what a military unit is taught to look for when searching out opposing forces, and evaluating a rough estimate of discarded uniforms to indicate how many dead and wounded indications,.....its in alot of books and training manuals. Anyway, it seems like it to me. Of course, that doesn't mean the whole area was a field hospital, just near the pit of uniforms
Hello WW2HH, nice video. the bakelite eagle is just amazing. is this place a common foxhole ? if one day you could explain to us what is a foxhole and how the german managed it ? thanks a lot for your passion. Regards. Marco.
I used to love watching these channels or people detecting the eastern front and other areas only to find that it's a tease!! Detecting in these areas is not permitted!! If I'm wrong then I would appreciate someone explaining it to me.
the colt ammo could have come from norway . the gun was put into production in ww1 if im right and the prints where sold , Norway had the colt in circulation when it was invaded by the germans so they could of had it from them
I'm lost for words on the amount of relics there that has been found AND I cantbimagine how many more are still buried!!! Also, I can't find the 3rd video. You did say there was a part 3???? Help!!!! Oh my gravy, I'm in limbo here.
After Germany captured Norway, they continued production of the 1914 Kongsberg Colt , which was the Browning designed 1911 made under license . This pistol fired the 45 ACP round that you are encountering
That is a really incredible location with tons of relics from a transit camp! It was such a privilege to share in the work of this young man.
It sure is and so glad i had the chance to see that. Thanks Beverley :)

One question. Is it german Death Camp where they murdered people or just resting place after the job was done? I can't recognise?

Maybe a resting place for surrendered Germans being marched back in Russia, where few returned? I think it's the SS you are referring to Arc.

I'd love to try out the digging myself 😊

@@WW2HistoryHunter Winchester and Remington made the .38 and .45 rounds too, I don't care much for the Winchester ammo cuz it fouls out, burns gritty, Remington is more expensive but burns cleaner. Springfield also made the .3006 ,.30 being the caliber 06 being the year the pointed bullet became issue replacing the .30 03 round nose. I had the M1903A3 made by Remington, stock split and bolt wore loose, could've replaced em not even realizing but I was younger then. Keep safe out there, change them socks regularly use foot powder. Feet, eyes and teeth, most important tools of the trade
Wow, that is a great find. Eagerly awaiting part 3 and more information about the site. Have you explored around the area more and possibly found remnants of the camp?
The camp/base, may have been captured by an allied force and then demolished and bull dozed under, that's why, IMHO, why there is so much good ammunition and every day items that were still usable there.
Waiting for 3. ;0)
Thanks for watching and Greetings from us.
I would be so scared to pick it up
Fire Blade890 Why..? Are you afraid of a German soul coming and taking yours?
Great vids, keep up the good work! I would love it when you could tell us a bit more about the areas. I figure you won't give away the spot, but just a general idea of the country, region and combatants so that it comes a bit more "alive".
Thanks
Greetings from China. I have been living in Germany, Munich for a while. very interested in German history. your video is so interesting. 谢谢你的分享！Danke schoen
What an amazing find!! What is he going to do with such a huge amount of items? Were you able to acquire anything for yourself? Thanks again for this amazing video!
Well , i shared some great times with the Young man and some small relics as well i Guess. Thanks
Excellent video. Thank you.
Thanks Steve
Hello from Germany... Very interesting video... I think this place has a lot of potential for found some radio-parts such like tubes or bakelit-cases... I now that most hunters of ww2 things don't talk about there places... That is something I understand but if you can let me know, it will be really great for me!
you are right , locations are not given my friend. Thanks for watching.
that is incredible , that little eagle tho !!! what a find ..
Appreciate you watching. Thanks
@ 8:12 it is called a bayonet scabbard, that the bayonet slides into.
It looks like you have dug into their garbage pit. The red round in the partial mg belt was probably a tracer round.
ok and thanks Leo
WW2 History is filled with memories...
So true and greetings from us.
Hi buddy, thanks for another great video. The thingy which holds a bayonet is called a "Frog". :D
Frog it is indeed. Thanks
I love these videos!! I wish I could find relics like this near me. Time to get a medal detector and head into the woods lol.
do that and good Luck my friend. Thanks
Looks like a massive burn pit. Here in the USA I know of a particular site that has a similar assortment of items except they’re WW1 era , on the outskirts of an old and still used military base.
It is a trash pile area after more then 3000 soldiers. Thanks
I have watched this video several times. All the artifacts are so wonderful. The 45 is a 45 acp. That's what was used in the wars. 45 Colt is what the old west cowboys shot. Just a FYI so I have failed you this month. I was going to buy a true German K-98 from WW2 but it was so expensive. The guy wanted $1200 for it. I just couldn't spend the money on it. Instead I bought the stuff to make my AR-15 convert to 9mm. I joined a pistol club so I can shoot when ever I want but they don't allow rifle calibers there. I wanted to shoot my AR-15 there so I bought all the stuff to rebuild it. I will have to wait till next month. I have a line on some German/Chech K-98's from 1945 from just after the war so they are in better shape. They are for sale for $499.00. I think I may jump on one of them in March. My birthday is on the 5th. I will be 51 years young. I'm going to announce a give a way when I hit 200 subs. I know it sounds pathetic but I haven't been that busy and my videos are not that professional like yours are. I think I just get flustered when I'm trying to talk because I have a thousand things running through my head when I'm shooting video. I'm trying to make the videos with a higher quality. I have shot the same video 4 times and I still don't like it. I have to get the ums and the lost train of thoughts under control.
Thanks for sharing my friend and for being here :)
Thanks,i really enjoy your videos :-)
Appreciated Simon
This is very interesting. Thank you for sharing it with us,
Thank for watching Michael
@@WW2HistoryHunter is
Simply amazing work ethic and highly educational without being educational, simply amazing.
Thanks for watching and Greetings from us.
so much history brought to life...I am shaking....& man has learned nothing but how to bring more destruction... when will it end?
huggs,silky
so true so true Silky. Thanks my friend.
Amazing that the pages of that book survived for so long!
yes i agree. Thanks
Very interesting. Great video.
Thanks Roger
it's unbelievable that all this stuff can be found 70 plus years after the end of the war
Awesome! Reminds me that maybe the reason for all this stuff in one large area was beacause when the war ended with Germany's defeat, all the soldiers just left everything behind as there was no reason to take any of it with them as the war was now over. So they decided to get back home with just the clothes they were wearing and what little they could take with them and leave everything else behind. If the Americans or possibly Russians had captured all those soldiers at that place at the end of the war then probably most all the ammunition would have been destroyed or blown up. So being that all the ammunition left behind without being destroyed, then that tells me that the soldiers just abandoned that place to go back home before they were captured at the end of the war.I could be wrong on my theory but that's what it looks like to me.But awesome finds and another Awesome video. Can't wait till you put out #3. Looking forward to it.!
john jenkins
I'm thinking it was a staging area or a rest area
Mostly because if all the beer and wine bottles
Hopefully it will be explained
Thanks for watching John
The round tip 7.92x57 (8mm) round you shown is an early pre ww1 ammunition that is lower power and slightly smaller around diameter to be shot through karabiner 88 "commission" rifle(especially if the markings headstamp prove that), that was generally loaded with a five round enbloc clip that ejected through the bottom, where some were later converted to feed with regular k98 stripper clips, but many of them had the smaller diameter bore of .319 and not .323 like in the k98, so it was dangerous to shoot k98 ammunition in the kar 88 if it had an original barrel. By late war, many second line troops were issued any weapons left around, like obsolete weapons, and of course captured weapons like norwegian krag rifles, carcanos(italian), mas 36 rifles(french), even captured weapons off americans like the colt .45 pistols which is probably why you see colt .45 acp rounds. It shows the desparate situation the Germans were in at the late stage of the war with this find, truly historical. I have some books on this sort of subject that I bought over the years talking of late war issuing of captured and obsolete weapons, and the sad truth is that alot of Hitler Youth and Volksturm troops were issued obsolete or captured weapons, both of which had very limited ammunition to draw from.I figure you were indicating this is a late war encampment/staging area, and of retreating troops.
Also, after seeing the video part of the medical book part, I was already thinking that the large numbers of uniform pieces seen all together, is usually indicative of field hospital signs, usually I have read of this sort of thing, and uniforms and boots taken off injured soldiers, the dead, etc will be found in piles,....this is what a military unit is taught to look for when searching out opposing forces, and evaluating a rough estimate of discarded uniforms to indicate how many dead and wounded indications,.....its in alot of books and training manuals. Anyway, it seems like it to me. Of course, that doesn't mean the whole area was a field hospital, just near the pit of uniforms
Thanks for watching and Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter
Hello WW2HH, nice video. the bakelite eagle is just amazing. is this place a common foxhole ? if one day you could explain to us what is a foxhole and how the german managed it ? thanks a lot for your passion. Regards. Marco.
What's a foxhole... lmao
I used to love watching these channels or people detecting the eastern front and other areas only to find that it's a tease!! Detecting in these areas is not permitted!! If I'm wrong then I would appreciate someone explaining it to me.
Thanks for watching.
Great video my friend:))
i would love to get my hands on just the smallest piece of history here! it would mean so much!
Thanks for watching
the colt ammo could have come from norway . the gun was put into production in ww1 if im right and the prints where sold , Norway had the colt in circulation when it was invaded by the germans so they could of had it from them
Could be and thanks.
I'm lost for words on the amount of relics there that has been found AND I cantbimagine how many more are still buried!!! Also, I can't find the 3rd video. You did say there was a part 3???? Help!!!! Oh my gravy, I'm in limbo here.
Yes there is and you can find that i think. Thanks.

Thanks for comment and for watching.
It's ok. I get the point.
Great channel. Fortunate explorer.
Take Care.

After Germany captured Norway, they continued production of the 1914 Kongsberg Colt , which was the Browning designed 1911 made under license . This pistol fired the 45 ACP round that you are encountering
Thanks for feedbcka nd for watching.
you need to come back to this place...its huge.
I did :)
WW2HistoryHunter good for you!😄
Amazing finds in the ground for so long!
i agree and thanks
Very interesting but being new to this channel I have a question, is the small round ammunition at all dangerous ?
normally not but one have to respect all munition. Thanks
very interesting, thank you my friend
