    As I was staying in the town of Barbery,France just lately the owners son brought out something he though I would find interesting. He said  it was a barn find in the town from last year.He wouldn't let it go by the way.  Lol
    Any ideas as to which regiment it may be from?

    I see what looks like a few numbers preceded by the letter B. If it is a soldiers service number the B would indicate the the soldier in listed in the Toronto area.

    Were you able to record the name and number at all, my fault I cant quite make it out,to see it 70 years after it had been left behind incredible. It would be a great justice if the chaps records could be looked up
