Does anyone have the ability to figure out the history of this marine? I got these with a canteen and a poncho that were said to have belonged to the marine, but there is no provenance to if they were belongings to that marine. His name was Lucien Charles Meriaux, and his service number is 820-273, and he passed away in Thousand Oaks CA in 2010. Thank you for the help!
