A man who admitted holding a dog to ransom in a dispute over a £2 million chalice which belonged to the Nazi leader Hermann Goering has been jailed for nine months. Derick Smith came by the solid silver foot-high treasure after it was taken from the ruins of the Gestapo founder's country home at the end of Second World War by a British soldier.

Little problem here. Hermann Goering was the head of the Luftwaffe, not the Gestapo. I wonder how much else of the article is wrong.

You know something about that story did seem odd. I do remember reading that Goering had a little obsession with clothing. This is the same guy who believed that he could resupply the german army by air when they were fighting the russians on the eastern front. It was a pretty big victory for the red army when it crushed the nazis a few months or weeks later.
