WWII airman? No just some moss.

Yesterday I posted an article about the discovery of what was thought to be the remains of a downed Airman from World War Two hanging in the trees of Papua New Guinea. Reported on the BBC this morning, the Australian Defence Force team sent to investigate found it to be no more than some moss on a branch.

“An Australian Defence Force (ADF) statement said that although the location of the find was below a flight path commonly used by Allied aircraft during WWII sorties, the “remains” were in fact a moss-covered branch.” There you go then.
