I know personally a 9th Infantry Division vet who brought home a really nice Luger rig... kept it for 50 years and SOLD IT to pay for his trip to be in Normany France for the 50th Anniversay of the D-DAY Invasion... where he had captured it.

He said it was great to be there to honor those who didn't make it... but he sure misses that Luger.
