Things like this come to light every so often. I have a late war Walther P-38 that was part of a stash found in the mid-90's. According to the importers story they were found in a forgotten storeroom in one of the sub-pens that still exist in a few French ports. Evidently a bunch of old crates had been piled in front of the door and noone knew the room was there until they cleaned them up. The story continued that they found a lot of other neat stuff that was impounded and cut up real quick too.

I don't know if this is sooo exciting - I more or less grew up with my grandparents (in Germany) in the 1970's. Finding third-Reich stamps and stuff like that in cabinets and drawers was an everyday occurrence, mainly because the old folks hadn't gotten around to cleaning out a lot of the stuff. By this article's definition I suspect most older homes in Germany are unique archeaological treasure troves. Also, I don't know how much of this is really "archeology" - there's still plenty of people from that era around

Cheers,

I think most people think that a big vacuum cleaner was used and everythng was swiped up. I also believe that many houses in Germany and probably Europe are treasure troves. Europe is a lot older that the U.S.'s current society so people , like myself, are amazed when we see 300 or 400 year old buildings that are considered shacks or other historic memorabilia from the world wars just kicking around. Maybe that is because the U.SS> suffered less physical damage than Europe. (This is a touchy subject to some and if I offened anyone, it is due to my ignorance, not intention). Some stuff would be worth keeping for it's historical value, some of it should be burned.
