Seeing the plaque on Atlantis makes me think if Discovery and Endeavour had a plaque or inscription in the orbiter; am I right?

According to the STS-133 (Discovery) and STS-134 (Endeavour) crews, they left no plaque or inscription aboard their spacecraft. Only Atlantis' crew did so, and it was designed so that it could be removed.
