The included factory letter confirms the revolver was shipped on September 23, 1909 to Lt. A. R. Underwood. Lt. Arthur Rutledge Underwood was a classmate of George Patton when he graduated from West Point in 1909 and shipped out to the Philippines just after purchasing this revolver. The cylinder has been shaved to accommodate 45 ACP. Underwood served through WWI with the American Expeditionary Force and ended his career as a colonel and commanding officer of Fort Thomas, Kentucky in 1944. Underwood's "AU" initials are carved in butt of the left grip panel. With the gun is a black leather holster, eight uniform buttons, and four of Underwood's medals including Victory Medals for World War I, World War II, and The Philippine Insurrection as well as a Good Conduct medal.
