I met Walter Shimler. (Korean war Marine tank commander) 3 or 4 years ago. I considered Walter a dear friend. & A real hero. Walt passed away. His wife gave me all his Marine corps things. This knife was in with everything. Any buddy know anything about it?

When you see “Old Glory” waving in the breeze, know that it is the dying breaths of our fallen hero’s that makes it wave.

Thanks reelshock. This form is always a good go to for information. I’m going to hang it on the wall behind my reloading bench. I felt it a great honor to have that passed down to me.

Sounds like you had a very good friend.
Do me a favor, think about being that guy to someone else. Look down the road to leave that piece to someone who will pass it down.
