Small golden locket, chain fused in place(?!).

Slightly burned(?) B&W picture w/half inscription on inside cover of locket. Partially legible: "USS Eldr(illegible)"

Back of locket reads "To Dr.Reno, best of luck!"

There has to be a story behind that one. Kind of like the empty shotgun shells my grandma found while mowing her lawn.

What a fascinating find. It has to have a story. Heck, I want to write one.

Looks like "USS Eldridge" to me. You might place a call to your local navy recruiter, who can put you in touch with whatever naval base is nearby. An inscription that specific is bound to have someone recognize it. You might well end up with a reward for finding it.

Or even the story behind the locket, which might well be way cooler than a reward.

So it's ollllld. The Eldridge was stricken in '91. Very interesting indeed.
