Grandpa Howard M. Hougan's Military Tin

This is a compilation of still photographs taken of the contents of a recently found tin of military paraphernalia collected by retired Air Force Major Howard Martin Hougan while serving during WWII in the Pacific Theater. The majority of the photos are of his collection of foreign currency, occasionally autographed by men he served with, and taped together in a string nearly seven feet long. As it turns out, the act of WWII airmen collecting and autographing foreign currency is called Short Snorting! Look it up at www.shortsnorter.org.
