RE: Hi Rod, was your Dad a Ranger or Paras?

No, my dad was a communication guy and typically worked at HQ for the Colonel or a General. I can't say where he got the knife. They were standard issue in WWII and he joined up near the tail end of the war. It was carried quite a bit, so whether he got it from an old salt or carried it along with his 45 during Korea and Vietnam, I can't say.

I suspect that he needed it to open K-rations.
