Greetings,   Found an incredible find being two brothers killed-in-action in the yardlong. Privates Daniel and George Lockhart, with both men loosing their lives on June 3rd and June 11th 1918 respectively:   https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/55950274/daniel-alexander-lockhart   https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/55950275/george_william-lockhart   Private George Lockhart (left) and Private Daniel Lockhart (right) in the photo:     Best Regards, -J.D.

Not on the bigger side. Someone  tried to clean the blade on one side with a rotary tool. The sheath has that been oiled so much that it is floppy feel but not brittle. I have showed a couple people they said  C W Era. 

Pictures do indeed tell a thousand stories. These are all really interesting war-time photos. Interesting shot with the dead Germans.  I read a comment from an 82nd Airborne soldier who was at Normandy, that a lot of guys would pose for such photos, but that he never would. He wasn't criticizing his comrades, he just personally didn't want to do it.

Late reply, but this is great research and very interesting! Very satisfying that his comrade Joseph McConnell refuted the story that Queen was shot in the back. Also - I'm glad that Queen was awarded the posthumous Silver Star.   Thanks for sharing this!

I appreciate the comments. Can anyone give me any info on what armored unit it may be.  Thanks! 

I assume it is one of the soldiers from PA. Due to the fact that I found  the kit at a large flea market in central PA. The young lady I purchased it from found it at a yard sale in a very small town in PA. She actually mentioned the name I just don’t recall what it was. I certainly appreciate the information.  Thanks! 

Wow, fantastic effort...well done..!!   Love the Map Case detail....really cool..!

Incredible build.   How long have you lived in Chambois?

That’s fine, there usually pretty cheap,  and it will give you a good idea if yours is legit or not. There under ten dollars for what you need on Amazon or you could probably find one at Walmart or a gas station (if your in the US)
