Great pieces, I would love to hear that story as well. This is the reason almost all my pieces come from the vets and I always ask for the story... terrific items and they display perfectly. I didn't see how you acquired them, was it from the family?

This grouping was found in an attic of the family of Lt. David by a good friend of mine during an estate purchase in Alabama in 2007

thats a great attic find and grouping you have! has lots of history, these are the types of pieces that are very special because you know they were used in combat and where they came from and the soldier that used it.
