Postie,
I think the "he" referred to was the Grandpa, not the German officer! Texas stayed safe from bombing in WWII! But maybe the Germans were only weeks away from the pontoon assisted invasion... lol
Tyler, Tx. seemed like a great little locale when I was there in the mid 70's. I hope it has not changed too much or lost its shady live oaks.

The numbers and proofs do not look damaged that much, that means no buffing was done, just nickel applied.

Eugene,
I agree that proofs and stampings are still visible. But what's up with all the rounded edges? No snot on this weapon, cause I'd say at least this was buffed out. I'll bet you could straighten it out, though!
