A bit on half topic.I saw this one Antiques Roadshow (UK) and it had this old lady who is the daughter of a British WWI pilot.She brought an entire box full of artifacts and personal effects.It included remains of his DFC ribbon which was the only salvagable part of his award (the museum it was in was destroyed during the Blitz) and was soon replaced.The contents included a good chunk of a German aircraft fabric (DVII I think),also included documents and a bullet attatched to a little chain to connect onto his pocket watch.According to her,the bullet went in his bum
