News in Brief: Venerated Relic Shown. In the ancient German city of Trier, American Air Force personnel are among those privileged to view a sacred relic - a vestment purported to have been worn by Christ, which has been publicly shown only three times in over a century. Establishing shots of European town. Masses of people file into church. Garment (robe) on display in a case. Really cheesy pious family portrait of dad holding little girl, mom at his side, the three of them gazing up with rapturous awe. People hand small items to a clergyman and he touches each item to the robe then hands it back to them.
