Reporting unexploded ordnance

Munition that has not or has only partially detonated is called unexploded ordnance; for instance because it has landed in water, snow or soft earth or been deviated by stones. Unexploded ordnance and munition remnants can frequently be found on shooting ranges, in mountain target areas, on glaciers – but also in the estate of deceased persons as military service souvenirs. Such ‘souvenirs’ are prohibited because unexploded ordnance is highly dangerous!

To prevent accidents, please observe the following principles:
never touch unexploded ordnance – mark – report.

Never touch unexploded ordnance – mark – report.
