Yes this really happened but not in the way you might think: read the story "The Man In The Flying Suitcase," as published in one of Canada's better newspapers, here:

Wholly unexpected use of the flash, n'est-ce pas?

(Posting this a bit late for Remembrance Day, Veterans's Day and Memorial Sunday, but better late than never....)

Using flashlight bodies to bail out their life raft! Smaller is not always better - imagine trying to do that with an E01. A thimbleful at a time...
