During WWII, the Army Quartermaster Corps started ordering Zippos in large quantities. Service men carried their Zippo Windproof Lighters on all battle fronts abroad, from Europe to the South Pacific. They carried their Zippos from beach heads to victory – too many precious memories, too much faithful service. And many of the veterans preserved their Zippos for posterity, along with service ribbons and insignias. In memory of them.
