I recently read a book by a WWII Marine fighter pilot recounting his involvment in the war.

All the way back to the base, the instructor was trying to figure out how he would break the news to his CO that he'd lost a student out of his airplane. Just as the instructor landed and taxied the plane up to the flight line, the student walked up dragging an opened parachute.
The student may have forgotten to buckle his seat belt, but at least he had the presence of mind to pop his parachute.
