Default Salvage

Hi Jon, I know from my trips to France that many areas were not cleared of wrecks into the 70's, if you go to the Brit Mullberry site the museum has photos from the mid to late 50's showing much of the treadway bridge still there , farmers in the area also collected all manner of metal items , everything from beach obstacles to vehicles , there is also treadway on display at Omaha , every time I go I see new items that have come out of the country side, last time the other truck traveling with us found a Ben Hur trailer still with all it's US markings on one of the farms,
