Lucky I guess
It's the metal detectors at the airport that find that horseshoe up there every time!
Nice to find that wrench,I'm always happy to find another tool to add to my tool kit. I am also happy to finally find a signalling mirror and I know this one will be proper as the kit was all together when I bought it and judging by the straw at the bottom of the small pack,must have been in a shed or barn! I was also happy to find a Sheffield England knife in the kit.The fork isn't issue but the spoon is.I don't know that there was ever an issue knife as every soldier was supposed to have a clasp knife but as this knife was in with all the kit,must have been what he used.
Happy,Happy!
