Picture 2 is of him entering Germany with his Colt .45 at the ready. He regrets to this day he did not bring the Colt back.
Picture 3 is the footlocker the Luger came back in.
Picture 4 is the Luger.

Hey Tom, these extra pictures would be good for Vol III (already up to page 54), send them to my email,
weimar_lugers@verizon.net if you'd like me to add them! Would make a nice one page spread
And anyone else that has guns with provenance, send me your story's, doesn't have to be a family member or a luger
