That really is great Ken! Lighters are very special things, I am very glad that this old friend is returning to you. Kudos to the gentleman who went out of his way to find you and send it back! Just an aside, a gentleman with whom I used to work gave me his WWII lighter, a Thorens with his unit crest and name engraved, that traveled with him all through the European Theatre. He said he figured I would be someone who would appreciate its' intrinsic value as something far more important than as a device for smoking. Cheers, Griff

This is amazing, KenC. What are the odds for something like this..... the act of a gentleman like the guy who is returning it to you because of his wife who spotted it, huh? I think the odds are almost astronomical. I'm happy for you.:)

ZIPPO has arrived in beautiful condition and a T-shirt from his marine business was sent also. He and his wife ride H-D so I am responding with several Bandido patches for their vests and jackets and a couple of the new Bandido Hats! They tell me they are having a bunch of fun telling the story about the lighter and being able to find me and return it...I am eternally grateful to them!
