Eruption of Vesuvius - 1944
#2

A fantastic set of photos!

The first one is awesome ... A friend of mine found right under my nose, a medal like one in the picture. We were digging in a village near Loiano along the Gothic Line, and I was helping him in a small American landfill. Between broken bottles and rusty object, jumped out the medal, he was about to throw because he did not understand what it was lol.

 

Congratulations, beautiful post!
