What's the shipping waybill from?
- netsharc 7y agoHuh, it's a waybill stickered to the device; in the picture with the man, you can see the shipping sticker on the front left of the orange cube. Which makes the device boring. If it had secrets inside or it was for military use, they would not have sent it naked, using DH-effing-L! At first I thought they sent something to the fisherman, and since he was complaining about his fishing net, I thought the article was about to tell me that he got a replacement fishing net straight from "NASA", as we can see from the DHL package he got... but sadly that wasn't the case.

- perlgeek 7y agoIt was shipped by DHL, and had a bar code with the tracking ID on it.
- davidw 7y agoAh oops, yeah, I was scanning the article and by the time I scrolled down to the DHL printout I had gone past the photo at the top.
- somesortofsystm 7y agoFrom the looks of it, this device was shipped from the US to Croatia, where it was (theoretically) brought onboard the US ship, then used in some operation where it was (possibly) lost, and/or not recovered during a search operation, which is (maybe) shown in the ship activity log ..
