[QUOTE="Winslow, post: 19403, member: 267"] About 7 years ago a friend of mine in Wales with whom I trade tobacco found a G.I.'s silver ID bracelet while treasure hunting on the beach around South Hampton.He belongs to a club that uses those metal detectors to search for crap that people lose. He gave me the information on the bracelet,I wrote to the local newspaper in Missouri,and made contact with the mans son.The G.I. was still alive,85 years old and owned a funeral parlor.He had been a mortician in the Army and was instrumental in establishing the military cemetaries in Europe. The bracelet was returned to him after 50 years of being buried under 6 inches of mud.He said that he didn't remember losing it,there was so much on his mind at the time. Winslow [/QUOTE]
