The Australian War Memorial in Canberra has quite a few Von Richhofen relics, but I don't think they've got an Arty that looks like that!

For those of you who don't know "the Red Baron" was shot down by ground fire and crashed in an area controlled by Aussies. As a result the War Memorial has all sorts of goodies "picked up" at the time.

They've even got his flying boots! (Aussie soldiers are terrible bower-birds)
