The Queen of Surrey had been docked at the Langdale ferry terminal overnight 
Saturday on the Labour Day weekend.  Thieves failed in their plan to make off 
with a B.C. ferry's cash machine.  They  apparently tried to lower the machine 
onto a waiting Zodiac inflatable boat, but dropped the cash dispenser into the 
water.

Code discipline had grown lax among the signal troops of the
German 5th Army ... and one Lieutenant Jaeger was detailed to
stiffen it.  He knew what should be done and issued numerous
orders to do it.  Unfortunately, he had overlooked the
circumstance that the German codebooks did not include his name,
which therefore had to be spelled out letter by letter every time
he affixed it to an order.  This was frequently ... Jaeger was
beloved by his adversaries because he kept them up to date with
code changes, and it was with genuine regret that they saw his
name disappear from the German traffic.
