The key to the great shape the tank was in i.e. no rust was due to the 3 meter layer of peat on it; it's an oxygen free environment. The stuff does a good job mummifying bodies as well.

Finds like that are not too unusual. I grew up at the German-/French border in an area where the frontline at the Siegfried line didn't move much from Sep '44 until March '45. Just imagine what our toys have been ;-). Approx 20 years ago a complete 8.8 AA gun on trailer was recovered in our village from under the mainroad, now restored and on display at the Wehrtechnische Studiensammlung of the German Army in Coblenz. If you visit Germany and you are interested in old tanks, please visit - Wehrtechnische Studiensammlung in Coblenz - Auto und Technikmuseum Speyer - Tank Museum of the German Army in Munster (!!!) And of course don't forget Belgium and Luxembourg for all those Museums of the Battle of the Bulge Very interesting! Finds like that are not too unusual.
