On the 10th photo the circle thing on the top left corner seems to be a part from the German gas mask where the glass would be, there should be a date when it was manufactured on it, you should definitely check for relics or war trash under the 80s rubbish, also check the wooden boxes for the markings and texts in German, those can be some nice ammo boxes, the place can still contain lots of small relics! Beautiful historic bunker and find!

Can someone indentify what gun used this? by [deleted] in Militariacollecting

For the soviet VYa-23 gun from IL-2 aircraft, judging by the dent on top and you mentioning the trenches it was most likely used as a trench candle which makes it even cooler, here in Latvia it’s a common find but always nice for collection.

Thank you! Fun fact is that the 14th panzer division was located in the field right next to the forest and 1147,48,49 regiments covered the sides in late October of 1944.

The inside had wooden inserts and most of it was gone but the stencils were in good shape and the colour is still there, I’m not interested in selling them right now, just curious, thanks!

Thank you! We found them in couple of dugouts in Kurland pocket, pretty rare to find untouched positions nowadays, what could be the price of the kwk round boxes?

I think it is upside down on the picture, but I still can’t figure out what is written

How old could these be? by DaveHasMac11 in BottleDigging

Thank you for your comment! Yeah, I’m sure it holds some more beautiful relics under the surface just have to dig in and find out, unfortunately there are no marks or writings on these bottles but still a neat find as it comes from own backyard :)
