In 1974 I was part of a French exchange between Bayonne N.J. and Bayonne France living with a Basque family. My French counterpart was Bruno Duclos and one day he showed me an old dirty luger he had found hidden since the war in their dirt basement. Obviously from the French resistance. Their family was Basque Awesome! I wish I could have brought it home. My first luger was a 1906 French contract. I happened to find our picture from 1974. I'm the long Haired on the right~I did take him to a Pink Floyd, 'Dark Side Of The Moon' concert and barely recovered!!~~Eric
