german tanks in Norge
thanks for that Robert very interesting...it makes you wonder whats still underground just waiting to be discovered...I know of at least one Churchill Tank in the UK in a bog...and probably a Valentine in another bog in Scotland...one old Home Guard boy was telling me where they burried there 17 Ross Rifles,3 Lewis Guns and 2 Blackard Bombers..however on top of the pile which included boxes of ammo and grenades/sticky bombs they have put bombs which had a light alum case and contain phospherus...I have decided not to persue that find although i do know the location...not far away from hear near the Holy island of Lindisfarne the RAF EOD unit has uncovered bits of Churchill tanks various chassis, wheels axels rockets,500 lb bombs and recently a 18 pounder field gun from WW1 all targets for typhoon range in 1944...cheers malcolm :cheers:
