Thanks Guys. Yeah I used to find good stuff in antique shops all the time when I was a kid, but it is a rare occurance when you find something worthwhile in one now.

Post your FP# on the 'Order of Battle and Individual Research Forum' over at the WA forum.

I think you'll find that he joined after 1941, 1942. That M35 was reissued when he got it.

good luck,, ty
