Hi, Ed,

I have written about this before, but will do so one more time.

The son of a deceased WWII vet and friend told me that he had his father's M1 rifle which had been given to him by General Patton personnally after the Battle of the Bulge. The problem was that I knew the father before the son did, knew that he had never been out of the states, and I was with him when he picked up the DCM M1 at the Railway Express office.

I did not tell the son the truth.

Jim
