By brother(RIP) was at McDill in fifties when a B47 ignited out both ends of engine, on engine start-up. When it exploded, all surrounding personnel had found the drainage ditches. A turbine blade landed in the culvert my brother was in, he found it and drilled a hole in it and carried it on his key chain.
