Being over 100 years old, I hold it and try to picture the multiple owners that it survived. They are the one item that we often traded among our GI,s The artillery were most coveted and and still is as they were more rare! Ownership is only a present right to possess. We merely only borrow them for a while before being passed on at some point! That is why I appreciate ever moment that I am their present keeper and the responsible that come with that privalege! They make me happy!!
