I’ve been wondering what happens to all that equipment that becomes left on the battlefield after a firefight. Are they just left there or does someone come and clean it all up?

Over time it gets collected by scrap metal collectors, people looking for memorabilia and kids looking to play.

We used to collect dud bullets for fun gunpowder projects and the spent casings from the m40 tear gas round is the perfect size for a candle stick(just be sure to clean really well).

Eventually, one the conflict is somewhat settledz some internation aid organization does a cleanup project to remove anything hazardous remaining.
