Jesus I Trust in You!

We found these at the estate sale of a local veteran. They were on a paracord, and I wonder if these weren't the medals he wore in combat. I almost hate to split them up and can't help but wonder what he would have wanted.

The medals are in the tags.

"Six arrestations en marge de l'affaire mystérieuse de St-Hubert," La Patrie. July 25, 1943. Page 45. --- (Par THEO LEVESQUE) De source autorisée, nous apprenons en dernière heure que six personnes ont été arrêtées et gardées comme témoins indispensables dans l'affaire de St-Hubert. Il est impossible cependant de connaitre leur identité. ---- L'affaire de St-Hubert s'éclaircit. Le chef-adjoint Jargaille est sur le point de révéler l'identité du cadavre dont les ossements ont été retrouvés dans la cave de la ferme de M. Eugène Abandonato, à un mille au sud du village de Saint-Hubert

De toutes les recherches et de foutes les analyses faites par les docteurs Rosario Fontaine et Jean-Marie Roussel, il ressort que le cadavre a été identifie: les ossements sont ceux d'un Italien de 35 ans qui serait disparu en 1935. Les médecins-legistes sont unanimes sur un point la mort remonte à 28 ans.

Il est encore un autre fait certain: c'est qu'il ne saurait être question du cadavre de l'un des complices des bandits dans l'affaire de la Banque d'Hochelaga.

Using crucifixes against vampires is Out. This is known. Just Once I would like to see someone try and use St Hubert on a werewolf and everyone to gawk when they realize that That Actually Worked!!

(St Hubert is a saint known for curing a person of rabies. He is also known as the patron saint for protection against werewolves and in some cases invoking him could cure lycanthropy. This part of werewolf lore is centuries old but not well known and super cool.)

Why did no one tell me we have a patron saint against werewolves?

In the days before multi-million dollar contracts, retired ballplayers had to fend for themselves. Here, Grover Cleveland Alexander, former star pitcher with the Phillies and a Baseball Hall of Famer since 1938, performs at Hubert's Flea Circus on West 42nd St. in Times Square, January 19, 1939. I'm not sure exactly how he's "performing."
