There was a good display on Animals at War.
Just a few pics here. Including a Soviet Mine dog in detail and some "awards" to show Horses who served in the Great War.
That's all for today.
Bye!

We now move into the post 1945 era.
Here are some items converted for civilian use. I rather like the painted & decorated glass mine.

poor doggy a suicide mission i take it
I read somewhere that the mine dogs idea backfired on the Russians, when they first tried to use the dogs in battle they ran towards the Russian tanks and destroyed a few, the Russians trained the dogs on T34s and KV1s etc all having diesel engines, all the German armour used petrol engines and the dogs had gotten imprinted on the sound and smell of Russian vehicles. Or is this just a myth?
Thats a bit ruff ruff on the dogs aint it
