This one looks like a piece that would go on the end of a cloth belt/strap to keep the end from fraying.

the bottom object appears to be a swivel for something pretty heavy maybe trench gun or something

Yep, the top brass object is the tip off of a web sling for a m1 garand or some packs or pouches had this tip on the straps.

The bottom brass object is a Blish Lock from a 1928 Thompson. stamped with the S on the side means it was made by Savage arms co. during WW2. this is a complete bolt assembly for a 1928 Thompson, the middle piece is a blish lock part. When the Thompson was designed, this item was put into the bolt assembly for the purpose of reducing the rate of fire in the gun. something about the friction of the bronze bolt. Interesting to find the lock, someone must have dropped it while cleaning their thompson in the trench.
neat finds!

Reference the Thompson piece... I hope he didn't need it ten minutes later.

Maybe the egg bomb and rifle grenade arrived as he was cleaning it? Not a good day!

Yes, the strap end is U.S. Army. The pottery is salt glazed stoneware. Also possibly a butter crock.

Good ID on the spoon!
