Some years ago, when I was in middle school, I acquired a vintage typewriter still in its original case. Stenciled on the case was the name "J.H. Myers" and on a paper tag inside was the same name, along with a string of numbers, the location "Goffs, California", and the key words: "56th Armd Engr Bn". Now 20 years old, I've begun to take real interest in finding out anything I can about this man, as well as determine if he is still alive or has any next of kin, on the off chance that they might desire to have this item returned to the family, or if not, that I might be able to better appreciate what he did in service of the country.
