liveww2 Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share #5 Posted July 7, 2013 And here is the bottom. I was lucky enough to get the guy's last name, so I may be able to find a little more about him! Any ideas about the initials "BMKx" scratched in next to the USN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ches-Gen-4 Posted July 7, 2013 Share #6 Posted July 7, 2013 Very nice find done by a true craftsman. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USAFnav Posted July 7, 2013 Share #7 Posted July 7, 2013 Nice item. Could the BMKx be "BmKy" perhaps? Not that it's much better, but it's hard to see in the photo. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveww2 Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share #8 Posted July 8, 2013 It could be a "y" or a "+" also. Hard to tell when in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
