nice stuff!
Interesting Paper Work. The WW1 soldier just got overseas at the very end of the war and the WW2 soldier had an interesting role. Aviation camouflage!!! Please he was only active duty for less than 1 year.

My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them
