It makes sense Space Force would have a turtle expert.
Somebody had to keep an eye on the Great A'Tuin.
Space Force turtle expert uncovers $1.2m Cape Canaveral cocaine haul

Just a few miles up the road from me, 4 or 5 at most, turltey is *exactly how they pronounce totally.

Naughty 45th Civil Engineer Squadron
I doubt the packages were intentionally thrown overboard (jetsam) so they must be flotsam. The discoverer cannot simply do whatever she wants with flotsam. If someone can demonstrate they are the original owner then they retain ownership. The 45th Civil Engineer Squadron should have given the original own the opportunity to claim the packages and supply proof of ownership such as a receipt.

And there were also cases where the plod has advertised "Surrender anything illegal, no repercussions, amnesty and all that, one day only!", and I can't help but wonder what happens when someone comes early/late to drop off.

At Dartmouth many students were making master keys to the college. So, at the beginning of one term they said, "all master keys can be turned in to the campus police - no questions asked. After the first month, if you were found in possession of a master key you would be separated from the college."
A visit to the campus police revealed a wast basket full of (shoddy) master keys. (Don't ask how I would know shoddy from good.) If you asked about the return policy they just pointed to the waste basket. No questions were asked.
