I have a friend whose father served in the 1st Battalion, 129th Marines, 6th Division from '42 to '45. He had been wearing his pin in support of the troops and had vowed to wear it until the troops were home. He became ill and in the mess, has lost his pin.

I've been asked to see if I knew where to find a substitute and I thought I'd come here first.

Thanks for the help.

Jack

Jack,

You can get a 6th Division lapel pin from Sgt. Grit Marine Specialties at www.GRUNT.com. Here's hoping your friend's Dad is feeling better.

Thanks so much for the pointer. I'll make sure she gets the URL.
