Jesus I Trust in You!
We found these at the estate sale of a local veteran. They were on a paracord, and I wonder if these weren't the medals he wore in combat. I almost hate to split them up and can't help but wonder what he would have wanted.
The medals are in the tags.

Jan Brueghel the Elder - The Vision of St. Hubert (1590-1600)
Unknown Flemish master after Albrecht Dürer - Saint Eustace in a Landscape (c. 1505 - 1525)
Albrecht Dürer - Saint Eustace (c. 1501)
“Dürer's largest engraving depicts the moment of conversion of a Roman general named Placidus. While hunting, Placidus saw a crucifix miraculously appearing between a stag's antlers. The stag spoke in Christ's voice, and Placidus fell from his horse and became a Christian baptized with the name Eustace. The print has long been admired as an exemplar of Dürer's extraordinary virtuosity; the animals and features of the landscape served as models for artists for the following century.” - The Met
