same concept as a ripper on a Cat D9 ^ but with "wings" on the ripper... Although,,, Im not man enough to carry a ripper around with me...... Yall have fun with that....I think I understand your question...
As the lunette eye is pulled, the flukes of the anchor - the two base plates, would go down as they move towards the stuck wrecker. There may have to be a little trench dug to 'introduce' the flukes into the ground, but when at the correct angle - they'd keep going down. Like how a boat anchor works. Specifically the plough type:

For retrieval, it has to be pulled out the reverse direction - up and to the left (as the drawing is now - achieved by a chain leash left loose on the ground, the other end attached to the top of the combining bracket.
I agree with Davis..... best thing with a wrecker is to not get it stuck to begin with..... though I know it will eventually come to this.... at least once......
PS: "Hey Honey!!!!! Can I buy a bigger dozer,,, and maybe an excavator too????? Uuuum ,,,, why yes it can be used to make some raised beds for your flower garden......
