Kickass, too. Has some sort of inscription in French. I'll post a pic sometimes this week.

Cool. I wonder if my grandfather has any pictures from his Pacific trip(However, he never saw combat).

Groovy. Nobody in my family fought in WWI, they were either too old or too young.

My great grandfather was a chef in WW2, he was buried in his uniform.

My grand father was blown up by a Moanin' Minnie, spent 6 months in a British hospital (a coverted lunatic asylum) in a full body cast.

Other grandfather spent 3 and a half years in a Jap PoW camp.

Cool. I have my great -uncle's WW1 officer's sword. Unfortunately it was not kept up by the person who had it before me and I've been slowly but surely trying to restore it.
