My husband was deploying to the middle east from Georgia, his unit was going through Iceland, where we had lived for three years. He works aircraft maintenance and puts his ring on his line badge around his neck. He lost both without realizing it. I got a call from security forces that they found the ring and I.D. and had tracked us back to the base in Georgia. They had to destroy the I.D. for security reasons but offered to mail back the ring. I got the box a few weeks later and when I opened it I realized how they had found it. It was flat!! They never did tell me that it was located because an airplane ran over it! Thankfully, although it was squished, all 5 little diamonds were still intact. He ended up getting a new ring when he got home from overseas and we still have the squished one.
