World War II Vets Memorabilia Sought

A message from the Post Commander: 

Comrades, I received a call this afternoon from a producer for the Discovery Family Channel. We may be able to get a bit of national publicity. Rather than explain what he is looking for, I will just offer a portion of his message:

The show is for the Discovery Family Channel. It follows two men who are contacted by people who want to thank an “every day hero” in their lives for the sacrifices they’ve made for them. They seek out our guys to help them track down an item from their hero’s past that they’ve lost or given away that holds great sentimental value to them. The reunion with these items will come as a complete surprise. 

The “every day heroes” are not always military veterans. It just happens to be the case with this particular story. 

We will be in the Seattle area from July 11 thru July 13th, to help a son honor his father, who is a WWII Vet. 

What were are currently looking for is someone who has a collection of WWII memorabilia in their possession that our guys can look through during their search, to see what else is out there. 

The collection doesn’t need to be laid out. In fact, it’s better for the show if the items are still packed away in boxes, in their cellars or attics.
