Thought would be interesting for some to see some pictures of french WW1 battle fields.

First of all one of the smaller german cementeries there to keep in mind what the following pictures are about. .

some items lying close to a former german trench. interesting the french rifle grenades and the german "Taube" on the right side.

Wow! Now that is interesting. VERY interesting that they would let you climb down in a hole and excavate (?) some of the ordinance that you have there.

Thanks for sharing.

Who said anybody is allowing to do that?

And no, no detector is used, in france that stuff is lying on top, besides what's in tunnels and holes.


Very rare British launcher grenade

French Fort,...... Actually those ones were pre WW1 but used in WW1 until the last man. Today most nobody know. The french as well have a great way to handle those things, let all treees grow the way they want and people won't find it. LOL

That's the reason you need old military maps where trenches and forts are marked.
