Wow!!Was actually at the scrap yard where IBM threw out a new case of LCD displays, I did buy them from the scrap yard boss (because I wanted more calls) and sold them in the same day for over 10 times what I paid each.

That's treasure hunting! I like it!
I found a 5 HP chipper shredder in the dump that needed a minor engine repair. Voila! fixed and working like a champ!
I sometimes come home with more than I took to throw away.
There are only two Louis M. Nichols in the SS database. I think the one you found was born in May 1928, and died Jan. 1, 1987. His last residence was in Virginia, but he received his SSN while living in Oregon. The other possible match was born in 1905, and died in Missouri in 1996. I think it's probably the first one because a Bible would be more likely given as a gift to a teenager, perhaps at first communion.
If the person is still alive, he wouldn't be listed in the SS database.
I don't think he's still alive...the apartment it came from was only occupied by one lady.....she passed away and the family just took the "valuables" and threw everything else away
Does that data base include the service numbers? I have it...it was written in the Bible.....357-74-99
Yea its funny how that is. I have a friend that has disposable income and buys a new spa every 2 years and I get his old one if I want it for free.I had a buddy who owned his own garbage collection company in an exclusive part of Atlanta. He furnished his entire house from "junk" that rich folks threw away. Including a pool table!
What kind of BOAT CAMP did you go to? (jk)The patch you found is one given to a guy in boat camp as a tempory rank. Each boat camp company had company petty officers from third class (one stripe) to first class, like you have.
