Out of interest, where was this and what else was found, if anything?

Philip,ABRG · 05-09-2006, 10:50 AM

25 pounder cases Paul, found near Nijmegen, nothing else in it, just remains of a postion used between 1944-1945, for fire towards Arnhem area

Thanks - most interesting, though! Is there much battlefield archaeology in this area?

Philip,ABRG · 05-09-2006, 06:40 PM

Yes as there is a lot of development in that area, and a registered EOD company is doing loads of digging up, I help them out once and a while, they started have buisness for one year, they are already their for SIX year.
