I been looking for a Robert L Fosdick for years.. I metal detected for over 40 years not . I live in Bloomington Illinois and we have a city park lake. The water was let out where you could walk out about fifty feet. I find all sorts of things but when I pulled on a chained very slowly wondering what was on the chain. To my surprise it was dog tags. With the Name Robert L Fosdick . Not sure if this is one of the same. Ive searched for years and found many world war two men with the same name . None of them matched. If I only knew his ID number I could match it up to the dog tags.. Thank you for this site. Love what you do..
