I was at a military collectibles show this past weekend here in Alabama nd one vendor had two interesting items for sale. The first was a book autographed by

Billy Bishop. It was in really nice shape and the seller wanted $175. The second item was much more interesting. It was a message from a front line German unit sent to a German Jasta confirming a kill for

Ernst Udet. The seller wanted $600 and I would have purchased it in a second had I not had to go home to my wife and explain it to her.
