Tag Reading Help
Hello,
I just picked up a new for me K31. It's a '41 model. I had a '51 prior to this but decided that what I really wanted was an older model.
This one had a tag. I can't make out any of it; I'm really poor at reading handwriting. Can any of you guys read it?

<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v42/k ... glarge.jpg" target="top">Here</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> is a larger scan of it.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Ken

Re: Tag Reading Help
Thanks for that much... it's more than I had. Looks like I'll be working on this in Photoshop tonight, see if I can't clean it up a bit.

The Cp is company and the last line probably stays for ressort Reduit 2 or some fortress.
That handwriting is like spaghetti for me (with sauce <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :b --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/tongue.gif ALT=":b">; )

The Reduit is the final resistance area the Swiss planned during WWII.
See for more in Halbrooks's "Target Switzerland" and you'll understand.

Re: Yooh...
The Reduit in the Alps was definitely going to be a tough nut to crack, so it made for a fine deterrent<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)">;
