JL;DR SUMMARY Coin collector Brian Iseman stumbled upon forgotten military possessions belonging to the family of Lt. Myer Tutzer Cohen, the first Canadian Jewish soldier to win the Military Cross in World War I. Cohen fought bravely against the Germans and was killed in action in 1917. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski.

• At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself.
• This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude.
• Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from.
• But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
• And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
