Members and volunteers of the NASFL Museum, Richard Haddad & William Davids continue with their archeology digging project, from the grounds of the WWII Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale, on the outskirts of the the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.  This time they found what they thought it was a mine, but it turned out to be an old water pipe. They will continue with their search for artifacts, as a mine and an Avenger torpedo was previously found in the grounds back in 1999. Both were inactive, thank goodness, but they still had to call in the bomb squad.

Mr. Davids already found several period glass bottles from the servicemen that were stationed at this base during WWII. Keep on guys!
