British history buff and collector of militaria Gary Sterne poses on the site a German bunker in Grandcamp-Maisy, western France, Monday, Jan. 23, 2006. After finding an old WWII soldier's map in 2002, Sterne went in search of buried treasure, in an overgrown field about 100 meters from a small road, and stumbled on a 20-by-30-meter slab of concrete, slowly unearthing a 20-acre German battery there.
