This now the second bracelet that I have been able to return.
It's a WW2 ID Bracelet.
The owner is now deceased.
I searched for any kids and with the help from my sister we came up with several names.
Then I looked on the High Schools Alumni and further reduced it to 2 people.
Then I searched the US for the names and BINGO got a hit.
Spoke with the son and the bracelet will be off in the mail on Monday morning.
Along with the bracelet I sent a letter explaining where it was found and also included a picture of me
holding the bracelet.
All I asked for was a letter back stating that he received it so I can put into my Metal Detecting Album
Enjoy.......................
What a great feeling this hobby is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is an email sent to me from the Owners Son.
Dear Robert
I am writing to thank you for sending my fathers WWII bracelet to me. We are very happy to have it.
I also want to confess that I was suspicious when you called and probably sounded so. Please don’t let that deter you in the future. What you did was really a good thing.
Now you have me stirred up. I would really like to know who he was visiting when he lost it. Mom and Dad have been gone for some time but there remain a few friends who I will make an effort to contact. Actually, I have always thought that having a metal detector would make for a great hobby. Now I am sure. Aside from finding the Rolex, I can see how you derive pleasure from what you do in this regard. I wonder how much you need to invest to get started?
I will send you a fiver to cover postage – a mere token of appreciation
Well thanks again, and if you know of someone wanting to move to Charlotte, please send them along
