By: Nikki Brahm, (West Bend, Wis.) Daily News via AP   14 hours ago


WEST BEND, Wis. — Lost for about 70 years, dog tags found with a metal detector in Colorado by a stranger have been returned to the family of a Washington County veteran.

Mary Seiser of West Bend was contacted Feb. 2 with an unexpected text message, which read, "Hi, my name is Major Zachariah Fike, U.S. Army, texting about your father, Franklin H. Schwamb. His dog tags were found 21 years ago at Camp Hale, Colorado, and the man who found them would like to return them to your family."
