Lol, yeah.
Gotta be a story somewhere about “why” the burned piano.
Nothing like that from artillery.
We just spelled out “S.O.S.” in our leftover powder charges as we burned them...
IIRC whenever the Royal Navy decommissioned one of their aircraft carriers, the pilots’ rec room piano was placed on the flight deck, hooked up to the catapult, and fired into the drink to the applause of the crew.
Still saddened by the restoration then destruction of the “Kee Bird”.
