USSR badge found.

[@SurvivalRussia]

Thank you!! :) I slowly started to realize you might have given me a shout-out. "WW2HH sent me" :) Strange find (the badge) if you are one your home area, which it looks like. Maybe a German soldier brought it from the Eastern Front? Looks like a cap badge.

[@AmericanRussian-yr7se]

Survival Russia Keep up the good work.

[@amc3]

13:53 ... "what the Fu ! ... holy shit - look at that ... are you freakin kidding me .... holeeeee Madonna - whats going on" This is why I love your videos, priceless moments of discovery and you share them with the world.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

My best find in 2016 is easy , TIME ,,,,just pure TIME :)

[@doctorno0070]

At 15:25 is a Soviet cap badge. If I am not mistaken, a star only is just standard Soviet. With hammer & sickle indicates a party membership badge. Very cool.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

hm , good to know and thanks

[@johnlowe276]

[@Grandpadew]

Great find with that Soviet badge WW2HH! Happy Fossicking mate! Warren.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Thank You Warren and Merry Christmas to you and Yours. WW2HH

[@tiggerinthewoods7996]

That Soviet medallion looks similar to the Soviet 'Order of the Patriotic War' medal circa 1942-1943.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

ok , will look into that. Thanks

[@chevywheels56]

Well Mr. HistoryHunter...another great video.! Keep up the great work! Merry Christmas to you and to your family! ! ! ! Chevy

[@neilphillips162]

it certainly is a HOLY MADDONA dig indeed great find mr history hunter, , keep up with the good work.

[@pajs1000]

I bet your heart skipped a few beats when the badge came up! Holy Madonna indeed! Great little pocket knife for your son to use on his hunting expeditions with you.

[@thedirtiestdan3378]

I actually have one of those soviet badges, they go on the fur hats they had.

[@ProGamerOne]

TheDirtiestDan you mean on the side caps.

[@NeilBawdonReseller]

Great video and a great find with the badge 👍

[@littlejimmy2855]

that soviet badge was totally a great find. make you forget that it's cold after finding it.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

it was quite a surprise i can tell you Jimmy. Thaks and greetings

[@ebinecksdee9872]

you should invest in a go pro so you can use both hands

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

To be honest i dont like the image the gopros give out. Thanks for watching.

[@ebinecksdee9872]

WW2HistoryHunter the hero 5 isn't all that bad. The picture quality on those is pretty solid. And if the fish eye effect is the reason why you're opposed to gopros, they have editing software made by gopro to remove that. If you still don't want a gopro, I can't force you. You do what you're comfortable with.

[@rcairnut]

I agree on the Gopro, I would look at a TomTom Bandit, less of the fisheye effect of the GoPro. Also another great adventure thank you for bringing us along.

[@adrianmunro7438]

Agree they are all wide angle and no good to focus macro close up on finds..and thats what we like seeing close up what you find..gopro is out.

[@seanconnolly1154]

praise KEK

[@dogteam56]

As always great video, I look forward to your videos

[@austinpierce2866]

Your videos pop up on my recommended all the time, and I always watch them, but I never subscribed until now

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

How great and thanks for that.

[@rohitshetty8205]

On the thumbnail, I thought I saw a Soviet Bottlecap.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

he he , looks like it :) Thanks

[@revealingthepast]

cool location, nice finds! thanx for sharing! Cheers from Finland - Andrea

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Thank You Andrea :)

[@Iprodeltaelite]

Nice find! Love the videos!

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Thank You so much for that.

[@UserK1M]

Hey. This has to be post-WW2 Russian badge. Especially if it's aluminium. Very interesting how did it get to that forest :) Very nice videos by the way, really enjoy watching them!

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

i am not to sure and very hardly would there have been post-war soviets there but you never know. Thanks for watching.

[@UserK1M]

WW2HistoryHunter it can be true if you're digging in the eastern part of Germany where the soviet army used to stay til the end of the USSR era. But it's a really nice find tho and the condition seems perfect!

[@pjhunters4235]

Wow the badge is beautiful!

[@juustero]

That badge looks beautiful!

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

i agree Juustero , strangely enough being Down there for such a long time. But it was sand so maybe that took care of it. Thanks my friend.

[@hansgruber650]

Soo much still buried waiting to be discovered.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

yes indeed there is. Thanks Hans for taking time to watch.

[@DetectiemetalMetaldetecting]

That's such a creepy looking forest :) It's like a jungle from Europe, Really nice find and looks still pleasant to go out, here everything stopped and winter got the claws on us. Best regards! DMMD Team

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

it is a cool location. Thanks for watching.

[@themanfromcabowabo1559]

9:34 I’m surprised how many people can just walk past a thing of beauty such as that and never see it. Guess beauty really is in the eye of the beholder.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

You could be right about that. Thanks for watching.

[@themanfromcabowabo1559]

@@WW2HistoryHunter You’re very welcome. I enjoy the channel because I see what you see. Especially with the artifacts and the stories they tell those who’ll listen.

[@MrShidPasta]

Damn, I wish I could find such awesome things! I am really enjoying your content :) Greetings from the UK :D

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Pleased to read that and thanks William

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

Great find!! I have a Soviet badge similar to that.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

cool , take care of it. Thaks

[@anthonyroberts7718]

Seeing that tent peg has me wanting to ask, have you ever spent the night at any of these locations? Wow, that badge was really down in the ground. It’s in wonderful condition. All your digs always seem to bring something up. Seeing that knife, do you think the Swiss Army was there lol. The piece used to roll barb wire on may seem insignificant but how many people have seen one. I haven’t. Love seeing something new in your videos.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Yes we have and we are planning several outdoor overnights adventure at bunker locations. Thanks and greetings from us.

[@RLhole68]

This may be an older video and I am enjoying watching. As to your question on your wield I will say not bad for a novice. :)

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Glad to read that and thanks.

[@joshuuaaaa440]

Hey dude , love the videos! Do you ever worry that when you are wondering around these old areas that you could stand on a mine that has been forgotten about ? Do you keep all the stuff you find too ? You must have enough to start a museum haha

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

yes there coud be mines where you stand but that is just how it is. I am not a collector , rather a sharer :) Thanks my friend for watching.

[@Nordvind78]

Hahaha yeah your welding looks really nice for the purpose :) It's great to have some craftingskills to modify your tools. Just moved to the house and not been able to watch some episodes until now. Awesome to have 3 episodes to watch. Thanks for your great work.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Great my friend and i might show some more of my craftingskills later :) i grind my shovels and i weld broken crap so trying my best. Thanks for Your kind support and all the best for 2017. WW2HH

[@Nordvind78]

It´s very fun and rewarding to craft and especially welding..Been working as a welder about 10 years now..started out with district heating..welding pipes in the ground..Lovely work and to be outside all days long..Yeah would be very nice to see other stuff you made,used to make my own tools and modifying the one i had. Wish you all luck 2017 and looking forward to all the episodes :)

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

cool , i do Tig - Mig , gas and Electric stick Welding and love it :) Thanks my friend.

[@Nordvind78]

Working with Tig atm welding aluminium,but worked with gas and arc welding when i was working in district heating..Welding in aluminium is like welding in butter..It melts in seconds :) Many welding thechniques was formed under WWII "A number of welding technologies were developed in the 1940s. In 1942, V. H. Pavlecka, and Russ Meredith of Northrop Aircraft Inc. designed gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) to weld magnesium and stainless steel. GTAW was used during WWII to weld fighter planes. Later, it was applied to stainless steel and aluminum." this is the source: weldingdesign.com/archive/welding-and-wwii ..WWII have many interesting parts.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

uber cool Nordvind. Thanks for sharing. Welding is very exiting i think and great to know how to do. And the best welders do amazing job on items. Thanks my friend. Ww2HH

[@daanvandenhoogen3739]

the soviet badge was maybe there because the Germans, used soviet people to dig a trench

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

or a German soldeier might have had it as a souvenir from earlier Battles ? I coudlnt tell. Thanks
