I've been out for a while since the new site is intimidating with regards to putting up new pictures, but I had to share a recent find. Went out fathers day with my youngest and found this under the edge of a root about three inches down. Thought at first it was an old can cause I saw the edge of it first. After carefully moving some dirt, it dropped back and as soon as I saw the back I knew exactly what it was! Found two general service eagle buttons within three feet of the buckle too. It's been a good yuear so far, between my son and I we've gotten two eagle plates and the US belt plate. Too hot to dig now, but we'll be back in the woods as soon as it's cool! Thanks for looking and HH!
