    2010 I was working on the island of Guadalcanal. Went hunting for pigs with the natives (spear and dogs). We found a crashed P-38 Lightning in the jungle with pilot still onboard. Notified the US military and they came out to the island about a month later to retrieve the body. I also found a US tank, machine guns, pistols, bayonets, helmets and a US brass-knuckles trench knife with 5 notches on it. Still a lot of artifacts there. All you need is a metal detector and info on where the battles took place.

      80 years worth of rain, foliage, branches and bark shedding, as well as whole trees falling and decaying in a forest located in an already wet boggy area will raise the ground level considerably, whilst gravity will tend to act upon heavy objects.

      I think it might be the clay that creates a sort of packing material to block out some of the decay and oxygen.

Interesting how nature can preserve or destroy items from the past. Glad to see the pilot’s family was able to receive his personal effects and receive a proper burial.

    For those that may not know, the 12.7mm gun is a 50 caliber. And that plane should have had that one 12.7mm/50 cal, and two 7.62mm/30 cals on it. It is cool that the soil there preserves things like that.
