Prodigger,
If you found items so personal like shoulder boards, rings, and dog tags, does that mean you also found human remains along with these items? If not with these particular items, do you generally run across Axis human remains during your digs? |

Thank you for your question. In fact, I work in the gullies and ravines. In these places were occupied by military headquarters, housing bunkers and tents. During the onset of Red Army, German and Romanian soldiers went to battlefields and died there. In the ravines and gullies remained only the military rubbish. Believe me, after 6 years of work in such places me very, very, very rarely come across the remains of soldiers. I want to show photos from the dig site.  image hosting service This post has been edited by proDigger on March 18, 2011 04:30 pm |

Hi ProDigger, Thanks for answering. You are right, since the bunkers were command posts, most of the finds were probably abandoned. Very nice finds, by the way. Good work! My only suggestion is for the dog tags you find. Since many of those represent dead soldiers (missing in action), you may want to notify the Romanian or German appropriate agencies, so that they can inform their families. You don't even have to send the dog tags, just send them an email with the name and ID number. There are a lot of families who still do not know and keep wondering what happened to their grand-parents during the war, so you would bring them peace of mind if they finally found out for certain that they died in battle. If you're concerned about your work, you can even send an anonymous email to these Romanian/German agencies with a list of names/numbers of dogtags you found. Otherwise, good finds! |
