Eligio Ramos, 91 served in Austria with the 250th Field Artillery during World War II, and lost his wallet while taking shelter in a farmhouse.

Dr. Josef Ruckhofer found the wallet while cleaning out the farmhouse, which had belonged to his grandfather, ABC News reported. Ruckhofer sent Ramos a letter about the long-lost wallet and Eligio’s son, Rosando Ramos, coordinated its safe return.

According to Veterans Affairs Public Affairs Specialist Carmichael Yepez, Ramos was in the farmhouse because Ruckhofer’s grandfather offered Ramos and his colleagues a place to stay as they went village to village rescuing prisoners.
