Family lore had it that during WWII a Nazi fighter plane had gone down on the Kristiansen farm in Denmark. Daniel Kristiansen’s dad thought it would be a neat idea for a history assignment if they took metal detectors out to where the plane was thought to have crashed and see what bits of wreckage they could dig up. They ended up locating the undisturbed wreckage of an ME-109 including the pilot’s remains.
Dibs on the Luger!
Darn good thing the munitions didn’t go off.
I read things like that and it makes me want to go buy a metal detector.
i never find anything cool
“Hey honey, I left a Messershmitt in the kitchen. Can you clean it up?”
Dibs on the V12 or the 7.92×57 mm machine guns
Wow! That’s kool.

What I win?
Yeah, I found an old 66 stingray in the woods with a metal detector. Sone guy had died in it, too. I tried and tried to sell it, but I just couldn’t get the stink of death out of the car. It had a hook hanging off the door handle, too. Cursed, I tell ya.
Folks around here still dig up bullets from the War of Northern Aggression.
Bible or Mein Kampf? But they didn’t look?
I’d laugh if it was a koran.
