I guess we should have asked.. what color military ID is it?citysherry said:Well, this is what I've found out so far, one of his parents is military - retired Lt.Col. Air Force...I wasn't given this info over the phone but the voice on the other end said re-read the card to me. In any event, this guy's parent will be contacted and given my info.
Well I guess it's all on perception.. do you want to be rid of the responsibility or do you want the rightful owner to get it back? Which person would you prefer to have found yours, if you lost your wallet or purse?CandyRain said:EXACTLY and then the onus is on the owner and the responsibility is off of the finder. If she keeps it, she'll keep calling and worrying and wondering. At least if she gives it to the authorities, she can have peace of mind that she did the right thing.

itsbob said:Nope, how would the owner know where to look for it at.
I think she had the right idea of finding a phone number, and would try again.
Google the name and address see if you get anymore information..
I (having lost my wallet last year) would be forever grateful if someone looked for and found me so I could retrieve my wallet.
For one thing, apparently we have an honest person here that wants to return the wallet complete with the cash to the owner.. not everyone (including cops) is that honest. I would trust the cash to nobody else.
ANd KUDO's to you for trying to do the right thing.

VERY cool!!citysherry said:FYI - I got a phone call from the mother of the lost wallet owner last night - she was responding to my original voice mail on their home phone...she had not yet been contacted by anyone from Fort Belvoir. They had taken a short family vacation before their son had to return to UVA today! They are meeting my husband (has today off work) to get the wallet on their way to drop sonny boy off at school.

Ding!CandyRain said:You should take it to the police.
Wouldn't the po po contact you?itsbob said:OK, he lost his wallet.. does he know WHEN he lost it?? If he doesn't know when he lost it, would he know where he lost it? Do you check the State Police, the County or the local popo??
It will be much easier for the wallet loser to find her then the whichever police dept she may choose to drop it off at.
I was in a different county when I realized I lost my wallet.. I THINK I know where I lost it, but not entirely sure. It could have been in any of 5 towns and two counties between two different gas stations..
