A Florida congresswoman is on the receiving end of some interesting packages from overseas.

Congresswoman, Ginny Brown-Waite, is pushing a bill that would allow relatives of U.S. servicemen buried in France and Belgium to have their remains shipped back home.

The measure is designed as a slap at France, which has refused to back the U.S. war in Iraq.

A German satire magazine is asking readers to mail bones to Brown-Waite's office in Brooksville.

The first box arrived last week with what appeared to be chicken bones from Germany.

The FBI is among the agencies investigating.
