GUEST: So I brought some of my dad's World War II memorabilia.

He was a Dutch Jedburgh, a Special Ops soldier, and he jumped with General Gavin of the 82nd Airborne.

They were the first two to land.

My dad was walking point and he spotted a s, a machine gunnist in a tree and, and shot him before the machine gunnist had a chance to shoot General Gavin.

So General Gavin al, has always credited my dad with saving his life.

APPRAISER: So when I walked up here, you're hanging out with our volunteer.

GUEST: Yeah.

APPRAISER: And do you guys.... How do you guys know each other?

Did you come together?

CREW: I've never met you before.

Before today.

GUEST: I can confirm that.

Yeah, one of the things I was carrying... APPRAISER: Yeah.

GUEST: ...had an 82nd Airborne insignia on it, and he commented on it.

CREW: So I said, "Oh, 82nd Airborne."

And you said your dad had jumped into Holland.

And I said, "What parachute regiment?"

And she said, "Oh, he wasn't in a parachute regiment, he was Dutch."

And I said, "What's your dad's name?"

(chuckles) Because, of course, I know the story that he saved my grandfather's life, because my grandfather was General Gavin.

And... She said it was Ari Brestaburgge.

And it was, like...

GUEST: (laughs) CREW: And, and, you know, when she first said, "My father saved General Gavin's life," I'm a little suspicious because there are a lot of stories about my grandfather, um... And then she said it was Ari Brestaburgge.

I said, "Yes, he did save my grandfather's life."

(laughing) So it was amazing.

I'd never met anyone from your family, and it was just amazing to, to meet her here.

APPRAISER: Well, that's awesome.

So, of the stuff that you brought, this was what we picked out to look at here.

GUEST: Yeah.

APPRAISER: Have you ever had this stuff appraised?

Have you had it looked at?

GUEST: No.

I just took the box from my dad's house and brought it to Boise, and I haven't opened it for... 25 years.

APPRAISER: But you know what these wings represent.

GUEST: Well, they're his Special Force insignia.

APPRAISER: Exactly.

GUEST: I know that-- I do know that.

APRAISER: So from a value perspective, I mean, this is interesting and wonderful, but the meat of the value of what you brought today is right here in those three wings.

GUEST: Really?

APPRAISER: A retail price for those three, because... On their own, they would be wonderful, but because they're him, they're a little better than average.

You have in the neighborhood of $10,000 worth of cloth insignia right there on that table.

GUEST: Aw... (laughing): No way.

That's amazing.

APPRAISER: And it was really special for me today to be a part of, of, of this.

Do you have, do you have any plans for this evening?

GUEST: Yeah, we're going to go to dinner.

CREW: Absolutely.

GUEST: If, if, if you let him off early enough.

(all laughing) APPRAISER: I can't guarantee that.

(laughs)
