I remember seeing these still littering areas in Vietnam back in the early 1990's.
One particular memory was accidentally kicking a mortar round by a small village on the Perfume river, just outside Hue, that was just sat on a slope in long grass...
Probably washed out of the bank in the November rains.
I Watched it roll out of the grass and just froze for a moment. It certainly sharpens the senses.
Still lots of uxo in situ then.
