krichu,
Quit worrying about your English. I would wager there are not many here that could correspond in Polish. Your English is far better than my Polish I can tell you. We all are very interested in your discovery and future discoveries for that matter.

This is quite a story you are putting together.

I just wonder if there are any people left that would have been Hoppe children during the war. It would be a wonderful thing to return a monogrammed spoon or two to them. It would mean a lot to someone who's family gave it all up during the war.

I know the Russians were rather brutal to the German people but one also needs to consider what the German Armies did to the Russians.

I echo all that has been said, about the greatness, the historicity, the uniqueness of these finds.
Have you considered a booklet, with maps, pics, and a blow-by-blow of the hunts and the finds?
Put me down as one of the first to buy the booklet.
AND.....do get this to THE BEST FINDS OF TNET section.
These things are not treasure that was hidden.....this was hidden to be used to live with by common folks who were hoping
that they survived the War. What a story to be told. And, possibly.....just possibly.....you will find one of the family
members who knows about these items that were buried.....my my my......it takes my breath away.
I hunt in S. KOrea.....and many are the same stories here.....first, when the Japanese came in in the early 1900's. Then,
again by those living in the South, when the North dropped by for a visit in 1950. I've never found anything like this.
Would love to, and then try to marry it up with the right family.
You have done great, my THing brother......keep us updated.

The initial post is now almost 4 years old. Still those would make for an outstanding day by any detectorist, shoot that would make my year! Those discoveries are pieces of history of a troubling time during war, when families were just trying to survive.

I could not find the former owners, do not even know if they live. Found objects are therefore a small part of my collection

Krichu, Thank you for answering, even after the thread began 4 years ago. My Dad fought in that war....I have a German
Iron Cross that he brought back with him.....he is dead now, and his small group of things found there were passed down
to me.
Keep posting......all of us enjoy the threads......my hunting is done in a foreign country, not the U.S. I have been living/hunting
in S. Korea for about 30+ years.....and so my finds look a little different then the most.

Looking through the pictures in this post I found out that I did not put there pictures of the finds on his return to the place of the Two-Box Eagle Eye, a year after the first finds.
Look for photos and will try to join, because it is not the end of history
