Accidental Resonances

Has anyone had an element of their fiction make an unexpected connection with real events?
In 'Midnight Angels' Jess paints a white rose on the tail of her aeroplane... officially it would have been red but she is from Yorkshire and a red rose would never do. When it's copied to the other aircraft it makes the squadron very easy to recognise and earns them a nickname.
I emailed a friend last night to translate something into German for me. Just had the reply and along with the translation ("Die Nachtjá¤gerinnen der WeiáŸen Rose.") he asks if it's a reference to the White Rose resistance movement in wartime Munich.
Of course it isn't but it's seems a strange coincidence.
