Here is another knife I came across while going through one of my father's trunks. Certain this was issued to a Marine, as its history starts in Paris Island. Many of the writings are very difficult to read, but I made a list of what I thought they were. This has been packed up for over 40 years and has not yet been researched. Would love it if you guys could add or correct anything on the list of places.
