Glass

Bottles,jars,all glass items really is great to find when digging out some buried metal. It is a very fragile material and it is always amazing when a tiny bottle with hairthin walls have survived 70-100 years in the ground, and equally frustrating if an item accidentally breaks while being uncovered. I wanted to show some of the smaller bottles I have found. These have mostly been found in dumping pits near field hospitals, medic barracks or office barracks in camp areas, and some have been dug out in frontline- and second line bunkers in combat areas,and also on the sites of kitchens.
​First off some ink bottles,one or two of them with crystalized ink inside.
