June 1 (UPI) -- A Montana boy found a set of dog tags and sergeant's stripes buried in the yard at his home and his family was able to return them to their 84-year-old owner, more than 60 years after he last saw them.
Wyatt Macy, 15, said he returned home recently and spotted something shiny in his Sheridan yard.

"Right here, looked down and just seen something metal and bent down, grabbed it, just a little dog tag and I'm like, 'wow, it looks real,'" Wyatt told KXLF-TV.

Wyatt and his mother, Becky Macy, enlisted the help of the American Legion Post in Twin Bridges to find the owner of the items, and they were able to identify the tags as belonging to Billings resident Jack Bennetts, 84.

I initially read this as "lost dog returned to veteran after 60 years" and thought that was either an incredible dog or a really mean trick to play on a veteran using dog bones.

Quarantine has zapped my reading comprehension. The first time I read it as "Lost Dog returned to veteran after 60 years"

I hope the kid told the old guy to take better care of his shite.

He’s supposed to be an example to the youngins.
