The chain bracelet, wrist tag, was found off the coast of Marseille in 1998, by a fisherman 'Jean-Claude Bianco'. The remains of Antoine Saint Exupery's plane was found by a diver 'Luc Vanrell' on the seabed in the same area in 2000.///.Luc Vanrell's new book, an old French magazine with a picture of a Messerschmitt, the aircraft which shot him down, and a model of Saint Exupery's Lightning, on a map of where the aircraft was found.
