I love that people like this still exist, genuinely heartwarming. I almost feel sorry for the guy now that he'll have the temptation to sell. Almost. hehe

Well done the Sergeant for putting him onto that 56 years ago.

Saw that on Facebook last night, made me smile too. Amazed he kept everything with it too. A nice story and a nice chap to boot!

Very good.

He doesn't say what rank he was (he says his sergeant recommended it) but I presume just under a month's salary now wouldn't even be close to buying the new equivalent today.
