What's been buried can be recovered.

There's recently been an excavation in Bulgaria were they've dug up a few Panzers n' turrets from the war. Most of 'em is goin' to be sold on an auction like the one earlier in Finland a few months back.

Me and flammpanzer were just getting ready to go metal detecting for civil war relics on the North Anna....... Exactly how long of a drive is it to Bulgaria?

Unreal. Like a time capsule.

I'm sure they were gutted of anything usable that could be transported easily.

It would be a great idea to remember to shut the sunroof on the car 'cos it could be slightly moisty otherwise...

Re: What's been buried can be recovered.

That is truly amazing! Makes one wonder how much it costs to excavate them, and what they expect to earn in auction.
