Enough to warm the heart of any Gunner, and fill the drawers of us "normal" people!
BTW, don't bitch about the way these have been 'disposed'... beats hell out of dumping them overboard in deep water, which was one of our favourite pastimes, along with burial after the dozers had crushed what they could. The murricuns were especially good at the latter with regards brand new aircraft sitting parked on Pacific islands - I've seen pictures.
