Too many You-Tubers make the video all about Them, hogging the screen with uncalled-for "Face Time" which is a character defect IMO. These guys are in it for the sake of History, you only see what's important. Very refreshingly humble, and these are great videos. Thanks guys!
+Gringo The reasons you describe are exactly why we do not show our faces nor much of our emotions. Our aim is to relive and share history from forgotten ww2 battlegrounds in an objective way. However, I do believe that there are multiple approaches to produce these type of videos. In the end, it's a matter of taste I think. Appreciate your comment, thanks for watching! Take care.
@@erikchernenko1880, I agree. What I also would like to know is in what way the "history" is shared other than on UA-cam? Do they map the searched areas? Do they report the finds in any way to proper authorities and to other people researching history? I agree with those saying its fascinating to see all the finds, but this is not saving history..
these late renaissance coins are marvelous. remember they were already there when the germans came by. and the french in 19th century. and the spanish in 17th century, who left them there. crazy, just damn crazy!
My Grandfather passed 6 years ago as the last surviving member of the 741st Tank Battalion. I like watching your videos and remembering his stories to help understand what hell he must have endured during the war. I thank you for producing amazing quality videos and showing your finds.
Knowing the places the 741st had to defend and the German resistance it faced, I understand that your Grandfather must have seen some extremely heavy combat. I'm glad he made it out alive and deeply respect his effort. May he rest in peace.
My uncle was a US paratrooper who jumped at Normandy on D-Day. He later was critically wounded at Stavelot, Belgium, in December 1944. We must always remember the brave souls who suffered and died during the dreadful conditions of war for our sake.
I love your videos. These remond me of when I was a child (US ARMY BRAT) attending a elementary school in Schweinfurt Germany and they dug up all kinds of wartime relics in our school yard while digging a water line. I clearly remember all the bullets, knives, and yes, the remains of a corpse. We were out of school for an entire week while they exhumed bodies.
This is really cool stuff. I did enough of my own metal detecting in the Ardennes when I was stationed in Germany in the USAF in the mid to late 1980's. My best finds were along the International Highway between Germany and Belgium and in the forests back towards Rocherath/Krinkelt. Lord I loved finding things. I used to sit looking at my finds and wondering whatever happened to the former owner, German or American. I really miss those days.
Great stuff guys. Just as a side note, the M1903A4 sniper rifle could not use the stripper clip. The mount and telescope were in the way. The stripper clip you found is for the standard M1903A3 rifle, which were surprisingly common even in 1944.
Encore une autre épisode de grande qualité. Superbe! Les pièces anciennes montrent l'antiquité de ces terres qui remontent des siècles et des siècles. Merci infiniment pour le téléchargement!
What an absolutely beautiful setting. It’s difficult to imagine the horrific violence of armed combat happening in such a serene and peaceful place. May it never happen again...
Great editing with actual footage of original items in use you found. Those coins were an awesome surprise very very nice finds. I love this channel keep hunting & finding this history.
Excellent presentation! Love the coverage and great editing. You had mentioned how hard it must have been for a soldier to dig a fox hole in that hard, rocky soil... you forgot FROZEN... I could not imagine trying to dig for my life while all hell is breaking loose. Truly great videos, thank you.
WOW! This video is absolutely amazing. I like very much the video quality, the sounds and how you integrated the old ww2 footages. Keep it up with this work, guys!
At 15:25, I find the stripper clip for the Springfield to be odd, If the 1903 had a scope on it there is no way to load it with a stripper and the U.S was using the m1 garand as the main service rifle. So it seems that it shouldn't be there. Only thing I can think of is that the sniper was given prepackaged rounds from previous stockpiles for the rifle and he took the rounds out himself and then loaded the rifle.
I really enjoy your videos. The ones in the Ardennes are really interesting to me as my father was there as a combat engineer. Thank you for sharing your finds with us!!
I congratulate your team on its' ability to identify some of the more obscure items, like the German half-track tread piece. It is one thing to find an item but totally another to know what it is, particularly when it is a specific part off a vehicle...or a German canteen strap. Great job!!
Thank you very much! After 7 years of digging up ww2 relics, we have become quite familiar with equipment of all kinds. It does not occur frequently anymore that we find something that we do not recognize. Cheers!
Just a thought, but in some of your dead-air parts of the video, it might be nice to narrate a little bit of history on the battle where you guys are metal detecting. To me, since my grandfather and his 5 brothers all served during WWII, these sites are hallowed grounds, earning respect of the brave men who fought and died there. Out of respect for the men of both sides, I believe that maybe at the least your members could tell of their hard fought battles and maybe interesting tidbits of history that most people maybe not know of! Great channel and I do find it an interesting look back in a time of great turmoil. I watch these with my grandson so he understands the history of how men and women gave their lives so others might be free!
Many thanks for posting this very interesting video. My father was wounded on day #2 of the battle by German 88 mm artillery fire on the northern end of the " bulge ". Good thing for me that he survived his wounds and went on, after recovering in a hospital in Liege, to campaign across Germany and the capture of Leipzig. I still have a Nazi swastika banner that he took down from the German headquarters there.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video! I'm very impressed with your finds, professional ethics and video editing skills Man! Thank you for taking us along on your adventure, and thank you for posting everything in English so I can follow along 😁
Excellent show. Enjoying them a lot. Can't stop watching. It's funny how even now where I live they are doing an excavation in a parking lot across from Fort Erie, which is a War of 1812 site between British and the USA. And so this all fits together in the "findings."
Zilver kan je goed schoonmaken met een bakje met zilverfolie (glimmende kant naar boven) munt erin soda erover en dan opgieten met kokend water. Top video.
@18.32 this appears to be a G.I. Canteen cup where canteen was inserted. There was a hinged handle for it. Soldiers initials says this was his personal coffee cup.
Only now I could see how a Garand M1 rifle really works. Up to this video, took for granted that it had five shots for his charge. Even though I had served the army, I had no idea about this famous rifle. Living and learning, see you elsewhere war treasures .
My grandfather (101st Airborne) was killed here. Please, when you find personal items, do you try to find family of the soldiers? Or at least make it public?
Still, I have an uncle who was killed there. I am not concerned about shell casings and such, but I do have mixed feelings about when you retrieve personal items such as mess kits and canteens. I'm sure much of his items were left on the battlefield where he fell and was carried off. We will never know who many of those items belonged to; perhaps those found should be left where they were found. I don't know, but it did affect me to see those personal things disturbed. Just a thought. Again, I do not have the answer.
@@johnhouchins3156 with much respect to your loved ones, the war has been over for 74 years. That is nearly 3/4 of a centurty. Those items in the dirt, they are not naturally there. It was a massive atrocity to everyone world wide. The United States lost some 58000 ( estimated) and we were so lucky. The numbers of dead other places Russia, Germany,Japan, tbe Jewish community as a whole those groups millions of people died. Those items should be shown to everyone. We will repeat the mistakes of the past if we forget them.
I'd think if identifiable items were located, he'd try to find family. He found a German gold wedding ring with the date and four initials inside. I had the perception he intended to try to find family but it's not much to go on.
Amazing history. The country had been invaded and fought over time and again over the centuries. Each invader leaving behind the stuff of those times. And time marches on.....
Awesome video guys what mega finds ...and those coins just to think they were sitting there under the ground while the battles were going on all around 👍
Wow! What an extremely well done video! I really enjoyed every minute of it and your editing is wonderful. Thank you for sharing and I have subscribed to your wonderful channel. Thank you.
I play call of duty ww2 and I already know so much of this. The Ardennes forest is actually a map on there, who says video games are bad for you. Turns out they actually teach you things.
While station in (West) Germany and assigned to the 3rd Infantry Division (Mechanized) I, along with thousands of U.S., German, and English soldiers participated in REFORGER '85. We were warned that we were NOT to step or drive off of established roads or paths (all of which were clearly marked) in the various tree farms we passed through in that area due to the large number of unexploded and undetected ordinance that was believed to still be in the area. German, English, and American military EOD personnel were VERY prominent during that exercise. Ironically, several thousand VERY live rounds of 75mm and larger artillery rounds were found UNDER the tracks and structures of the railway, in the city where my unit was stationed, AFTER REFORGER '85! Trains that were used by Allied military and German civilians had been traveling over those rounds since 1945 without incident, BUT it was stated, by military and civilian EOD personnel, that it was only a matter of time before such an incident occurred with devastating results for all concerned. Be very, very careful digging around ANY former combat zone where unexploded ordinance might still exist.
Your field radio battery is part of a stack of cells that were in a paperboard housing around One inch square and about twelve inches long, with a contact on each end This was a B battery and produced 103 volts. The A batteries were 1.5 volt each, and were the same diameter as D cells and about 3x the length. The radio these were used in was called a Walkie Talkie. Model number BC-611. Batteries didn't last long as it had 5-6 small tubes in it. I think it had a range kf 1-3 miles. Depending on conditions or if the WT was talking to another WT, a backpack radio, a vehicle radio or a base station.
At 15:30 the caption indicates that the stripper clip used was more than likely for a Springfield sniper rifle. This could not be given that the scope would prevent the use of the clip and to my knowledge the "03" was never issued in an "offset" configuration like the sniper Garands. Garands used and enbloc, Enfields used a clip that had support walls. Some American units still used the Springfield "03" after the Normandy landing as is evident in pictures but this is more than likely a German stripper clip or maybe a clip for the French Mas 36, though they were not widely used.
For those medieval era silver and gold coins, did you guys manage to get any est value on them? What a find discovering coins from centuries of years ago.
Superb videos guys and thanks for sharing your finds, it's amazing to think that so much is still around us so long after the event. A couple of questions come to mind regarding your finds though, what happens to them once you've unearthed them (do you contact the land owner / authorities? Do you share any monetary value accordingly? Are some of the items placed in locations for others to enjoy / reflect over?) Do you always seek landowner's permission before breaking soil (given that this particular video was an Ardennes forest - who would you seek permission from?)? If you find personal belongings (i.e. name tags / dog tags for example) do you try to repatriate them to fallen's relatives? Do you contact the relevant authorities / military departments, etc.? After having seen a number of your videos, and your sympathetic and mindful approach in the way you go about your 'business', I have no doubts that you seek the relevant permissions, and contact authorities with regard to hazardous finds as you outlined in this video (RE: UXB Howitzer shell and geo-referencing) ... my questions are purely inquisitive and not in any way critical of any of your methods. Please keep doing what you do in the way that you do for for the fallen that paid the ultimate sacrifice.

i think that's the beauty of a find like this, the one can only wonder about the story behind this coins, very cool indeed!
Were they perhaps liberated by a GI or Wehrmacht Soldier? Then lost on the field of Battle!

Thanks for watching my friend. I'm glad you enjoyed it :D Cheers!
Very well said WW2HH, my thoughts exactly.
What do they do with artifacts found?
I didn't think locations like the Ardennes Forest could be detected legally anymore.
You guys should team up
Hervorragend diese Auktion von Silbermünzen und Gold aus Spanien.
Ein wahrer alter Schatz ! Gut gemacht, Jungs.
So peaceful and idyllic, it belies the horrors of 70 years ago. BTW, I really like the way you do your videos.

Was stationed in Prum Germany in the early 70's, We found numerous ammo around the base where the American Division was positioned as well as weapons.
Bet they were in a bit better condition back then.
I really enjoy your videos. The ones in the Ardennes are really interesting to me as my father was there as a combat engineer. Thank you for sharing your finds with us!!
Robert Riley from Illinois fought in that forest, he said they were under intense heavy bombardment and it was freezing
In my opinion, band of brothers shows very good the horror of this fight in the ardennes. Maybe you take a look at that series?
I love your videos and appreciate the effort put into them. The film footage from the war adds to the videos in an interesting and poignant way.
That forest gives me a huge sense of battlefield nostalgia
Love your channel. How awesome to find and hold pieces of history in your hands. Keep up the wonderful work!

Outstanding coin finds and channel always a pleasure to watch thanks for taking us along
The production quality of this channel is amazing and a pleasure to watch. Amazing work. Thanks
Damn, 400-500 years old coins. That's crazy! Must be worth a small fortune to collectors too!

Superbe vidéo continue comme ça
Awesome coin find !!!
Fantastic finds ! 😀👍
how to you feel when you find the ammunition
I feel like its really special and might keep it after giving it to the police to check
I dont think ammunition would be very dangerous. They do mark the location of any explosives tho and report them
1621 coin...woow. very nice guys!

Superb videos guys and thanks for sharing your finds, it's amazing to think that so much is still around us so long after the event. A couple of questions come to mind regarding your finds though, what happens to them once you've unearthed them (do you contact the land owner / authorities?
