Not much...but something

[Sebix]

Hi,
I would like to show you my finds of the last year. It's not much, but better than nothing.

First, a british 20MM-cartridge case. It's from an Aircraft-Machinegun and found on a meadow near my home-village in northern Germany. It was my first military-find and since then, I found 4 or 5 of them on the same meadow.

I also found a 20MM-Bullet and a 7,93mm-Cartridge in my garden(!), but I didn't take picture since I found them.

Second, a burned out "Handflammpatrone" from the modern German army. Probaly, it was thrown away on a maneuver in a forest near my home-village.

Third, a cartridge case from a hunting-rifle, found on the same meadow like the 20mm-cartridge cases.

Fourth, my best ground-find ever! A neolithic axe. After I found it I brought it to the next archaeologist and he said, that the axe is probably 4000 years old.

Fifth, some pictures of my Great-Grandfather (btw: is that the right word for the father of my grandfather?).

Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures, but I only have a webcam!

On the back stands "Comrades of the 90th Infantry-Regiment on 17th November 1941"
That Photo was taken in Russia.

About this photo I can't say much, because on the back stands nothing. It must also been taken in Russia.

On the back of this photo stands: "Who has no liquor, is not allowed to drink some"

This photo shows my Great-Grandfather, as he advanced to the rank of a "Unteroffizier" (Sergeant).

Here you can see him with his wife and his two daughters. The right is my grandmother. On this photo his rank is "Hauptgefreiter" (Lance-Corporal).

very intresting
What awards at your grandfather? In the first photo at one of the soldier I have seen a tape of an iron cross. 90 infantry shelfs were in 18 infantry divisions under stalingrad! I am right?
