Jan. 20 (UPI) A Florida man who lost his high school class ring more than 53 years ago had the item returned to him after its discovery at a U.S. Army base in Hawaii led to a search for its owner.
Doyle Smith of Seminole said he was drafted into the Army in 1966 and was stationed at Ford Island, Oahu, Hawaii. While serving on the island, he lost his class ring from East Atlanta High School, a Georgia school that closed in 1995.
