    Hey comrades:

    “Napoleon's hat on the battlefield is worth 50,000 men”

    I thought it was 40,000 men (maybe 50 with inflation). Anyway, he must have left his hat in the carriage at Waterloo.

    If it was the station, the hat would have been covered with graffiti.

    In Lost Property more likely along with all the other weird stuff people leave in carriages (I hear they have a sizable collection of false limbs)

    Yes. It's just as well as I think Napoleon's head was much larger. That's a lot of money for a hat that wouldn't fit!
