Thank you all for the kind replies I think you're right ringfinder, it was found in a civil war camp and from what I've heard they had reunions at their old campsites..

Thanks gents, didn't notice ur replies the other day Thanks for taking the time to respond.. All this stuff about a streak, well really I think it would be tough to not catch some kind of a streak for anyone in this area given the history, thanks again though
