Tacoma teacher Lynn Goralski photographed over 4,000 WWI graves in France, documenting U.S. soldiers’ stories and preserving their legacy on Find a Grave.

The device resembled a WWI artillery shell, officials said, but it had no identifiable markings. The device was removed from the beach and taken for proper disposal.
