    Default Cool Thing Happened Today

    I was at a flea market last week and saw this WWII Navy ID in the bottom of a trunk. I was like hey.... I'll pick it up and see if I can track anything down. The WWII vet in the ID died about 2 years ago. Last night I had a wonderful conversation with his daughter and she was in absolute tears when I showed her the ID. She ended up only living about a mile from my house. Obviously I gave it to her and she had not seen it since she was a little girl. Funny how this world works!

    When I asked the lady that I bought it from, she said that they buy and sell storage lockers.
