The beast saga continues!!
Hi Phil: Here's your May 1st update. I talked to my neighbour Patti today to see how she was making out and as usual, she's right onto it. Not good news from the get go! First of all, we can't find the gentleman's name anywhere within the USA. So that we need to clarify... the name, spelling and hopefully the young fellow who sold it to you didn't string you along! Secondly when it came to the O.B.E., there is no listing of your gentleman being awarded this medal! Are we sure he was awarded this medal or could it be another medal?? Thirdly, we have NOT checked the Cunard Line employees, which is our next step. And, as per your message, I am assuming you mean Cunard Line and not Canard Line (not Canadian). Sometimes we have to start at the back of the bus and work forward.
My neighbour has some very expensive stuff programmed into her computer that allows her to source info that the average person IE: this forum can't. She is an author, ghost writer and is known worldwide.
So as luck would have it, you've got the best on your side!!
I'll keep you informed as the news progresses, but double check your background info, just to be sure. We'll talk soon....Robert
