That reminds me of a story.
In 1960 - 62 I worked at the RCA BMEWS site in Thule, Greenland. All our services were through the Air Force base, including the postal service. The Air Force had a deal with the host country, Denmark, to use Danes for as many unclassified jobs as possible, including running the post office. One of my compatriots developed the opinion that "FRAGILE" translated to Danish, meant "FROM ABOVE THE HEAD"
...so, be wary when flying a Scandinavian airline with you "fragile" instrument.
