    Well time for another Flyers10 contest before I head overseas on vacation next week.
    First the rules:
    Minimum of 50 posts to answer the contest.
    Contest for US and Canadian members only due to shipping costs.
    All answers by private message please.:

    As usual I will ask about 5 questions which with the help of google or bing you should be able to answer. I am not here to try to stump anyone just to have fun and maybe learn something new.
    Contest will end on Saturday July 17 at 12:00 PM (Noon) Eastern time and the winner will be announced shortly after. Now for the grand prize:

    Silver coins: Kennedy Half Dollars: MS condition: 1964, 1966, 1967, 2 1968-d, 2 1969-D. 2 Canadian Quarters 1938, 1943 and 3 Canadian Dimes 1953, 1959, 1964 all circulated. 17 average circulated war nickels.

    20 Clad Kennedy Half Dollars in MS condition in 2 by 2's. Years mostly in the 90's with lots of duplicates.
    1964-D BU nickel roll in original bank wrap.
    2004-D BU nickel roll in plastic shrink wrap.
    1970-S Lincoln Cents in paper wrap...better grade..I don't think any small dates in there.

    Some foreign coins and tokens..I don't think anything of much value in that bag but you may find something you like.


    The Second place runner up prize. A nice 1958 BU Washington Quarter Type B.

    Questions are on World War 2. All answers by priviate message please. Here we go:

    1.< When was the last German airborne assault?

    2.< What was the occupation of Heinrich Himmler before he became the leader of the evil Nazi SS?

    3.< Did the Polish use bears to carry ammunition during World War 2?

    4.< How many Medals of Honor were awarded during World War 2?

    5.< Who was the highest ranking American killed during World War 2?

    Good luck.
