I was a salvage diver in Vietnam. We had 3 days to remove artillery shells from the water (overturned vessels) before water intrusion rendered them inert. So, very little danger here.

Straight from the Dictionary. Hunt- to search for someone or something determinedly. So there you go fuckface.

It's just a headstamp from the ordnance works, It pre dates ww2 most German ammunition had it apart from ammunition made for the SS as they privately sourced their own. Sometimes the star will change from 5 to 6 points, Has no Jewish connection.

That cordite can lay in water for decades +be good still +primers were sealed ,handel with care.

[@bad74maverick1]

Cordite can't lay in a dry storage room for 10 years and be okay. It's considered the worst of the powders. I have about 8,000 rounds of 303 british and it's hit or miss, mostly not fire or slow burn miss, so if exposed to moisture? it's useless.

[@Sabretooth-jm2kb]

I had strings of cordite from a shell out of a sunken ww1 warship (northsea above the Netherlands) , after 80 years in the water it still burned good

[@televisionone4177]

With aged unspent ammunitions and unexploded ordinance, can’t this be dangerous?

[@hmlsc3133]

TelevisionOne what’s the difference to handling new live ammunition, the chance of it exploding non existent as it’s been in water for so many years and the fact that gunpowder degrades over time

[@Fishhead436]

it could have exploded when it was brand new it could explode now i think, if they are in that good of condition its possible

[@hmlsc3133]

@@Fishhead436 if they are ww2 era they won't fire. I have ammunition from around ww2 that has been properly stored and it won't fire because the gunpowder has degraded. being in the water will only speed up the process. plus ammunition doesn’t just explode, it takes a lot of force on the primer for it to explode.

l really enjoy watching your videos. They are very well made, interesting, and help to bring our history alive again. I had an uncle that was at Bastogne, and fought in the "Battle of the Bulge." As a child, l would ask him about his experiences, from time to time. He never spoke about it, and always changed the subject. Now, as a combat veteran myself, l fully understand why he would not. I applaud your efforts, the respect, and reverence that you pay to the fallen solders of all nations involved. As an avid detectorist myself, l would love to be there with you guys, as you uncover our nation's common history. Please keep the fantastic videos coming. Good luck, and safe hunting.

[@mdww2battlegrounds]

Thanks to both you and your uncle for your service! Also really appreciate your support!! Cheers

[@megaladonrockband4855]

So interesting to see these relics from the war. Makes you wonder what else is buried and in the waters on these historic battle grounds.

You guys should metal detect the beaches at Normandy

[@orangeman9081]

That’s probably already been done to hell, they aren’t the only people that do this sort of thing

[@rapfire2003]

I would never do that because you would just be making people remember that day

[@logan616]

Dominic de St. Simon hell yes

[@liftedchevy303]

That’s a protected historical landmark that cannon Lynne accessed with special permission, let alone doing any digging there. That’s why saving private Ryan was not even filmed there. Not possible bc not allowed.

[@DominicdeStSimon]

duramaxwelder not the beaches. That’s disrespectful. I’m talking like Caen the flooded areas by the Germans

[@Elghast]

The more I watch this channel the sadder I get. Ww2 always felt like it was stuck in the history books! Even with the testimony of the veterans some unconscious part of me believed it was in a far away past and all its traces were removed. But here we are, 3 quarters of a century later, still finding pieces of metal that would have broken apart to deliver damage, death and pain from a human to another. Astounding...

[@hughsnyder6967]

Think this is something. I saw a Video awhile back that showed the inside of The Lussitania sunk on its side so they went in with cameras they saw something that looked like rolled up Painting of art we will probably never see. And right next to them were brass blasting caps that read Bethlehem Steel. So The Lusitainia was carrying war munitions from America to England during ww1

[@jarrettvoyzey9893]

Hopefully you get a Raygun from one of those mystery boxes.

It's good that someone is getting these relic up and out. They are still dangerous to the public. A great history lesson you guys have too.

[@spooncarvingwithtom]

Is it possible to take the live ammo to a specialist to deactivate? Could they remove the gun powder and disable the primer before putting it back together for you to be able to keep?

I got to work on a battlefield from the Indian Wars in the southwestern US. I didn't metal detect it, that had been done before i got there, but it was so cool to see where the Apaches were, where the US Calvary was, and where the civilians were, all from where the spent shell casings were found. We even found a few unfired .45-70 rifle cartridges. What you guys do would be so cool!

I'd bring the shells home. It was safe to move them all over the world they're made to travel to the battlefield. If you don't put them in a gun they won't go boom. And being in water 80 years reduces the risk more.

Suggestion. Your videos are a pleasure to watch. Beautifully & respectfully crafted and the archival footage & music creates a great experience.
