Thanks Joey!
Time for an update! Lots of Dutch material (my roots!)!!
Here's a Dutch Legion ring, which is on the way to me from Austria. It was found at a former POW cage in Germany (no doubt an open field) so lost or tossed at war's end... The "G" letter could be a Dutch date code (for 1941) or an initial of the Dutch master silversmith who made it. A possible cadidate is Gaillard from Schoonhoven who was active trhough 1941.Comment
