He lost his VFW ring the other day. I went over to his home and searched where they thought it was lost. They had gone over the yard with a fine toothed come but to no avail. Well the good Lord wanted this man who served our country during the Korean war to have it back. It is 10K with black onyx and a diamond. He was very happy to have it back. His son was equally happy. I am glad I was able to help one who served us all

Way to go Mike :thumbsup: It's NEVER easy giving back gold, but, you did the right thing & that brave man deserved it :headbang:

Finding his ring and giving it back was a real act of generosity! I bet his family was thankful too. Worthy of Honorable Mention.

Honorable Mention to you...... and Honorable Mention to the war vet humoring you for the first photograph, you can see it in his face!

This is amazing he got out the shirt and everything for this photograph this is like an actual photo shoot you must be sending these to one of the magazines I'm guessing.

Thanks for setting a good example! :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:

EDIT: An additional Honorable Mention for having so many Honorable Mentions!!!!

Did you get a real warm feeling in your heart when you found and gave that ring back to that gentleman? If you did thats God's way of thanking you!!! At least thats the way I believe!! :icon_thumright:
