No biggie about not knowing, was just trying to pass that along. I served in the 80's, but wasn't positive about WW2 until I found some paperwork/pictures of a Great Uncle of mine that was Marine in the Pacific. His paperwork dating was the same as were some letters and the telegram (KIA) to my great grandmother.
As for the show, I was trying to make out the handwriting too when first watching that episode but it was kinda small on my computer. I thought the lighter was funny also but it didn't dawn on me until @Whitewater Horn pointed it out.
CSB//??
Concerning the French/Allies underground, I used to work with a guy (and went to medic school with) in our Fire Dept. that we gave crap to regarding his French heritage (surrenders/never fired rifles/ha ha etc). He took all the kidding in good stride. He was a good cook as that it was his dad did with owning his own restaurant.
His dad passed a few years back. Included with his obituary were some links to articles about his dad not only being part of the French Underground during the war, but he was a high up leader that caused quite the problems for the Germans with assassinations of high ranking Officers/ blowing up of bridges and railways/ really helping out with D Day stuff and after. Dude had been a real badass during the war and had all types of medals from the French Government and the Allies. My buddy Gil had never told us those stories about his Dad.
