I picked up a nice old Lightning bug of 1955 vintage - the previous 
owner wrote his name and some basic info on the side of the box.  After 
a little investigation it appears he used it while stationed at Wakkanai 
Air Station, 1st RSM, and by what I can tell he was active at least in 
1955 so probably the only user/owner of the bug.

In the bottom of the box there is a small file with Vibroplex stamped on 
it - I assme this was for filing down the contacts?  Seems a bit rough 
for that type of use though...
