I tend to look at French military history from a foreign legion perspective as my brother served with them (twice, long story). The legion acquitted themselves well from indo China , to alegria (where the chest is from), to Bosnia/iraq /afgan.

My brother has tried to trace the bloke who owned the chest. He's found a French bloke with the same name, who was in the military, and had a medical connection. He was celebrating his 90th birthday in 2010. Apparently it wasn't a common name so perhaps its him. The only reference is a French article in some local paper of this one bloke...might be dead now like but its the nearest he can find. 

Our kid will be well pisssed off if its him and he wants his chest back and he's got to give up his bar table ?
