US Navy jet tail fin washes up on Irish shores
A tail fin from an F-14 Tomcat belonging to VF-101 Grim Reapers was washed up ashore on a beach in Ireland on Friday.

The tail fin was found on a beach in west Cork by a retired Aer Lingus pilot.

The Irish Aviation Authority sealed off the scene and handed the investigation over to the Air Navigation Investigation Unit.

A Pentagon spokesman said that they were not aware of any missing tail fins.
