every time I see that icon I wanna know the backstory there. was it manufactured? not likely. engraved? more probable. for whom, and from whom is what I wanna know!
Yap, no way it was manufactured like that--unless the clods down at the Zippo factory were huffing lighter fluid that day.
No, I think it was probably a Vietnam-era soldier's. It was in a display of lighters at an < href="http://www.livejournal.com/users/wickedflea/526610.html">antiques market in NY, and a lot of them had military insignias and whatnot, plus some said Jimi Hendrix and stuff.
