The wounded soldier gave my father-in-law his crucifix before dying. I keep the crucifix to remind me that there can still be humanity between enemies. Can anyone help me identify Vichy 6th REI casualties from the Battle of the Litani? I would like to identify that Legionaire if possible. J.B. Redner Australia A Silver Fillagree Crucifix:
