Ian:
Thank you! I hope that I will be able to decipher the first name soon as I have it here in my hands. And yes, I would concur with your age guess.

Jose:
This was the reason to buy it, they are so seldom seen for selling that I didn't want to let it go.

It's not fancy as your one but a honest example with provenance which need to get uncovered.

Craig:
Thank you very much! The only confusing fact is that it was a Captain and on the scabbard is written Major!

I am not very firm with ranks in the US army, is it possible that it is the same person?

Regards,
Detlef
