My personal opinion is that this is a complete wild goose chase and waste of time.  Nothing stands up to any investigation and a very great deal of time and effort has been spent.    It is now over 70yrs since WW2 and I get the feeling this has all been an elaborate hoax by somebody - for what reason goodness only knows.

70 plus years and carved wood in an open forest is still allegedly transcribable ???

I do not intend to spend any more of my time on it

The 'carving' reminds me of those pictures of Jesus or the Virgin Mary that some people claim to see in their toast.   ::)

Letters M and N? Can vaguely make that out, but if they are letters rather than just cracked bark, I don't see how it could be associated with Alfred Munnings.
