LakeBum Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 I hope it is legal to ask for help on this translation as it is not sword related but WW2 related. This was my Christmas present from a brother in law and I would love to tell him what the translation is! Thank you for your time! Quote
