CAUTION GRAPHIC
Not the only thing relic hunters are finding:

Do you know the story of the mummified remains in the first two pictures?

It looks like they are in a bog. Very good preservation properties in that sort of environment.

Yes, I've heard that.  It appears they found the pilot; what about the plane? It oughta be around there somewhere, wouldn't you think?

Hey PlaneJane, I borrowed those pics from a site called WarRelics, a UK based site. It was explained that the intact pilot was a Russian flying a Spit that was shot down and indeed was in a bog.  His remains were later buried properly.  

The second were causalities from the Russian invasion of Norway, I think.
