That really is great Ken!

Lighters are very special things, I am very glad that this old friend is returning to you. Kudos to the gentleman who went out of his way to find you and send it back!

Just an aside, a gentleman with whom I used to work gave me his WWII lighter, a Thorens with his unit crest and name engraved, that traveled with him all through the European Theatre. He said he figured I would be someone who would appreciate its' intrinsic value as something far more important than as a device for smoking.

Cheers,
Griff
