I'm not sure where to post this but I figure that since it's a piece of an aircraft this might be the place..Mods if there is somewhere else where it is more appropriate please move it. this slice of propeller is 10 1/2" long ans 1 1/4 " at its thickest area and seems to be made of aluminum. I think it may be a piece of a Hamilton Standard propeller, possibly off of a B-17 ? I have found very little about Arthur Harold Meyer but I will keep digging !

If you click the left side button for the other Meyers in the cemetery, you can see his parents.

 

Here is his enlistment info:
