Hey thanks for posting this. I had seen mention a few years ago about the fisherman bringing the bracelet up in a net and had never been able to find anything else about it.

If anyone wants to read a decent pre-war flying book try Wind ,Sand and Stars instead of the above kid's book.

Now maybe someday Glenn Miller's plane will be located.

The Little Prince is not a kid's book! It was not written for children, it was written to adults. Stupid bookstores place it in the children's section. Buy one - buy two because you will want to give one to someone very special.

"Wind, Sand and Stars," also by St. Exupery, is also a fine book, but don't overlook "The Little Prince" just because you are under the impression is it only for children.

Don't mean to threadjack... but didn't they admit a few years ago that Glen Miller had really died with a prostitute in France ... Could have swore I heard they had kept it quiet for obvious reasons... I also know there was a bomber that had dropped unused bombs while returning from a mission. They had believed they might have hit his plane...Can't say I am sure of it, but I do recall hearing something.....
