KASTAUFFER Posted February 28, 2017 Share #26 Posted February 28, 2017 Incredible set! Thank you for posting this. I have some etched Pacific POW canteens and mess kits in my collection and they are highly prized by me. The best examples I have seen are from the Pacific. The Germans generally did not allow mess kits and canteens to be taken into the camps they ran. Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

navybraat Posted August 7, 2019 Share #41 Posted August 7, 2019 I understand that. I would like to trace who it was sold to. Paul Golly was my grandfather. I didn't know much about his time as a POW and my mom didn't know about this set. I would like to know more about it. That's why I was asking. Thanks.
