cheers mate

if it wasn't for his son contacting me through another forum i still would not know any more about him so its really thanks to forums like this that this was possible

Well done mate! This is why I love my named document collection. Very rare to get the info you have mate so congrats!! Just a trip to TX now with the helmet & a photo taken with it on his grave

Now there's a good excuse to get out of this country for a while

Hi Nick, great to hear you got such good result by googling! I have a personalized knife and tried with no such luck so my research could take some time...if ever. I favor any kind of personalized items. To me it gives anything more interest. Glad to see you put a face and some info with it as well through his son...dont happen often so thats awesome!

Regards, Edwin

it dose make a piece all that more special when something like this happens & i feel honoured that his son went out of his way to help me out & pass on some of his family's history to me
