Scottvez, I still find all things WWI fascinating. I have some great photos of the guys getting on the train, marching in a parade etc that I will see if I can get posted this week. I would love it if you took a look. You are MUCH better at finding the clues to help ID them than I. Just need to find a few minutes when it is still light out to take some photos. These photos are so interesting thanks for sharing.
AmberRose-- I would be glad to help.
Just give me a heads up once you post the items.
Scott
Thanks tlmbaran.
