"I is with the Marines!"
Pigeons are amazing; from the 50something medals awarded to animals for bravery in combet, ywo thirds have beem awarded to pigeons! There is the case of a British bomber shot down over North Atlantic in 1942. Each one carried a cage with a pigeon (True) and the crew jotted the coordinates of their splashing and sent the pigeon with them, in a cylinder strapped to a leg. The valiant bid flew 4 hoyrs (a distance of 249 miles) at an average speed of 62 mph to reach their base and warn the rescue crews.
