Famous WW2 Quote
"Among the men who fought on Iwo Jima, uncommon valor was a common virtue."Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, 16 Mar 1945

I have an ashtray and a pin from the H.M.S. Devonshire. During WWII my Dad worked in the Norfolk (Virginia USA) Navy Yard and worked to repair and make the ship worthy to sail again. He often invited foreign sailors to our home for dinner. In appreciation, they gave Dad the objects listed above.
