thanks for sharing thats really cool anyone that has ever served will be glad to see this thanks again you should be very proud
 
Very cool stuff! Imagine if we had to ration gas and food now? People would freak out.
 
Very cool stuff, My Dad served in WW2 he was in the 9th air corps European theatre. Glider pilot during D Day. He is still alive and kicking at 90, Im only 45, just a youngster!!!!
 
Cool stuff, man. Make sure you keep it in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight. That stuff has survived about 70 years. Make sure you protect it now that you are the caretaker.
 
yep its in the hallway and what is near the front room is away from the sun so it should be fine!!

anybody else have stuff they want to post?? we could change the name of this to WWII vets or whatever...
