It's me granddad's Andy ! In possession of Dad !!! It is in really good nick still, Canadian made and issued to him in Germany in 1945.......obviously his "best" BD...........after fighting his way from the D-Day assault, through France, Holland and the battle of the Reichswald (Op Veritable) in 44-45 when he
crossed the Rhine I doubt if his "other" BD was in any decent condition to survive.......:o)
