Well another week of light hunting on post. Just when I think an area has been hunted out, something new appears. Thankfully there are 6 nice playgrounds on post for a quick fix.

My surprise of the week was a rusty sealed container the size of a cigarette package. It had some weight so I knew that something was in there, maybe gold, ammo or a alien baby. After about an hour I got it open and got a little nervous. I believe it is some kind of US issued WWII chemical detection or simulator kit. I awaiting further information from the experts. Ohh I work as a chemical warfare guy in the Army.

Notable:
Pocket WMD
1938 British large penny
couple 1860s uniform buttons
A pin with a womens head??
Nice unit coin (Field Artillery)

50 CENT necklace, YO! you better back off ! Its all MINE!
