Munitions WW II

(1/1)

johnnn:
 I was looking at the US grenade, and here in Canada I walked into a field with dozens of U X P Mortar shells they are dated 1941/42 and are "smoke" mortars still live they became a nuisance, they were water logged and not leathal in that condition, the ground they had impacted on was very soft thats why they had not exploded.
They are all at the bottom of a deep river, as always do not mess with live ordenance, I am not an expext but know enough to ID stuff that can be moved........HH   Johnnn

Get them to the experts for disposal before they dry out, mate. Retired military man here with real world experience.

It can be very hard to operate a metal detector or dig with part of your hand gone. Extremely hard to do when dead.
