It is neat to see the old currencies signed by service members and taped together. When I was in the AF, I often traveled to other countries and collected different currencies. I didn't get my friends to sign them, but that would have made for a nice memory. One thing I did start doing before I knew about the short snorters, was getting my friends to sign $1 bills to leave as tips to good bartenders and waitresses. We would also give a regular tip in their currency, but we liked to give them a nice memento from 'those nice Americans.' :) The National Museum of the United States Air Force at Wright-Patterson AFB in OH (http://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/)has quite a few examples of short snorters on display.
