Hi, These are not my photo's, they were taken by a friend of mine in 2009. He was part of the clean-up team working in the Libyan desert at that time. One comment he made was that there is so much well preserved history in the desert, a burial mound could be 10, 50, 100 or 1000 years old.
All live items found were destroyed.
I have a teller mine fuze from that clean-up, which is in OK condition. As I recall, it was recovered from a mine field constructed of German, French and Italian mines, with AP mines protecting AT mines. In the mine field were the remains of British vehicles. It was in an area where the New Zealanders advanced, so is of interest to me. Found in the mine field were boxes of unused fuzes.
Cheers
