Lighter with interesting emblem........

Post by sunshine »

My husband and I have an old lighter with the emblem of the Vliegtuigsquadron 1 on it. I am interested in learning more about the history of this and where it may have came from.

Yes it is; it is a raised metal emblem on a Zippo lighter.
