A while back, Edge posted about finding a dog tag and getting it back to its owner's family. Tim (Edge) is 1000% a great guy. I chimed in on the dog tag discussion about having my Great Grandpa's WWI dog tag and full uniform. Tim asked to see pics, but I had to wait to get into my safe after the keypad died. Access happened yesterday, so this post is for Tim/Edge! My Great Grandpa on my mom's side was in WWI and he passed away when I was in 8th grade. He was 92. He had 12 kids (that survived, 14 total) with my great grandma. As everyone was going through stuff, they came across his original dog tag and full uniform. My great grandma asked what should be done with it. My grandma knew I was a military history buff at 14 years old, so she grabbed everything and said "I know who will appreciate this!" and got it to me. It wasn't until a few years ago when my grandma's sister passed away that I was able to get the original helmet to go with everything. As promised to Tim/Edge, here are the pics. Full set of leggings (plus an extra), helmet, oversees cap (dad had a different, nsfw name for those), pants, jacket, and helmet.

I haven’t seen a beating like that since someone stuck a banana down my pants and turned a monkey loose.

Hit!

Looking like another Elk draw shenanigans.

Hurry up! My work production sucks right now.

Well better to understand and know the reality than live in a fantasy world. Yep was a bit cut and dried but I found it interesting to know the facts.

7million people in AZ no such thing as 100% anymore those days are over

Faith my friend! I didnt draw my archery Bull tag till almost 5 pm. still plenty of time to draw.

The timestamp on the phone is three hours ahead, so probably nonresident deer.

2 youth tags charged.

Just got hit for 90.00. My bud and I are going hunting!

TTT

A little Arizona nostalgia. There was once a time that you could go down the G&F headquarters on Greenway Road / I-17 and watch them manually draw applications from a barrel. I never did it but when I was in HS my boss and his brother would go down and watch. This would have been around 1978-79.

I was lucky to take a 114 7/8" (5x7) Coues Whitetail in Arizona in 1991. It was at one time ranked at the 13th largest. I'd like to see the record book for rifle non-typical coues whitetail. Sorry about the picture. I don't know how to straighten it.

Just got hit, youth tag

unit 14??

They are incredible handsome men, with their key lanyards, thick rimmed glasses, untrimmed facial hair, off brand demin and lazily buttoned plaid shirts. Now pretty please give me my tag.

For everyone “negging” on the response…why would you try to shut down a possible 20 pager?

this is why many never have their animals scored or bother to enter them in any record book

The buyer is my Dad. No worries with him.

Both my boys got points so looking forward to some local youth tags for the first time ever. Hopefully they do it tomorrow.
