For Christmas my parents got me a discharge certificate for a Marine from WWI. I just recently got it framed and mounted.
This is hand written, with the personal information added later. It is signed by the Commandant, Major General George Barnett.

I know nothing about Harry Haffner, other than that he served aboard Parris Island, so did not fight in France. This is a fascinating piece of history and I'm pleased to have it. Once the basement gets finished this will hang on one of the walls of the man cave.
What a wonderful piece of history.
ReplyDeleteI agree. A small thing but very cool.
