(005875.811-:E-000062.43:N-AC:R-SU:C-30:V)
[I've been doing a bit of reading about Napoleon, especially the events prior to his death. I was astounded to discover that Napoleon was buried twice. Once on St Helena where he died. But in 1840, they took his body to France and gave him a new funeral and built a tomb for him – a fine tomb that even Hitler visited. But I was astounded by the carriage they built which seems to have had his casket on top. It seems to have been about 4 stories tall and pulled by horses! I was astounded by that. Jan]

White Shop: A Handful of Hard Men: The SAS and the Battle for Rhodesia
It is difficult to find another soldiers story to equal Watts in terms of time spent on the field of battle and challenges faced. Even by the lofty standards of the SAS and Special Forces, one has to look far to find anyone who can match his record of resilience and valor in the face of such daunting odds and with resources so paltry.
