      Nanafay, I was on the Antique Road Show in 1998 aired 1999. My items were my dad's Remember Pearl Harbor, see my post. How did you like the way you were treated by the staff of the roadshow.

      I also wanted to add my dad was a Gunners Mate on a PT boat in Australia during the time 6 PT boats moved Gen MacArthur & family from the Philippines to Australia.
