And smoked, drank beer and carried 100 lbs worth ammunition in boxes. What a fucking G.

Did you know that a pigeon earned the medal Croix de guerre, with a palm Oak Leaf Cluster for his heroic service.

This is Simon the Able Seacat. He served on HMS Amethyst (as shown on the collar) and was rewarded medals for hunting vermin onboard the ship and of course his behaviour of the highest order! His greatest achievement was defeating the rat known as Mao Tse-tung who was eating food supplies.

They really missed out on calling the rat Mouse Tse-tung

There were many methods used to win the war against the Nazis and it doesn't surprise me to see animals served. Brown bears on the whole tend to have a reputation for being aggressive, but Wotjek here doesn't appear to be extremely tall, hence why many soldiers weren't afraid of him.

You know bees have been used in war? The Greeks and The Romans would load nests onto catapults and fire them at their enemies. In Nam, the Vietcong would put wasps nests on trails they knew were being patrolled. In Iraq there was some lunatic who wanted to train bees to sniff out explosives. Luckily the generals stepped in and put a stop to that guy.

Why would you call a rat a mouse?

Bears or leather daddies?

Might as well call a horse a donkey or a gorilla a chimp. Fuck it why not call a cat a dog?

Puns only work if they make sense.

Puns only work if they make sense.

Bruh, I don't know what you want from me. Onlookers will either smile at the pun, or get upset that a rat is not a mouse, or not think it was fun at all for whatever reason.

Pun police over here

I want you to acknowledge the difference between a rat and a mouse.

Yes, it's funny that Mao sounds like mouse. Hilarious infact but it makes no sense. Simon didn't kill a mouse he killed a rat.

That's fine. I didn't mean to disregard decades/centuries of scientific categorization or to disrespect the cat's accomplishments.

I bet that rat left a bunch of Mao Tse-dung in the storeroom

Dogs too! (NSFL)

We Brits still carried on using Airedales in WW2 as they where so useful in WW1 and NOT as anti tank dogs.

"No man could get through the environment, and their one chance was Jack," said Alastair Petrie, a former Lieutenant Colonel in the Territorial Army who has owned a number of Airedales."

"A piece of shrapnel smashed his jaw, but he carried on, and another shell tore open his coat right down his back, and he kept on going."

"Finally his forepaw was shattered, but he dragged his body for the last three kilometres.
"There was the glaze of death in his eyes when he reached headquarters, but he'd done his work - he'd saved his battalion."

My dog Gus, fortunately he doesn't have to go into battle.

More about not knowing stuff.

You are correct, more about not knowing the useless things. Unlike you that only knows more useless things than anyone else on this forum.

Now back to your tiny little rotten hole where you belong Billy.

Fucking cats, they get a medal even for something they are gonna do anyway because it is in their nature...

The miss congeniality of the animal world.

Not sure if being tall matters at all when he can probably rip your head off with a light slap, bears are strong AF.

 

[poppabk]

This was before even 'don't ask don't tell' so it's no wonder you didn't hear about it, but all kinds of gay men served in WW2.

True, but some of the other subspecies grow to around 7-8 feet tall and several hundred pounds heavier. Given Wotjek’s size, the Polish officers clearly weren’t afraid of him, though he could shred their face with a claw swipe. Take this huge muscular Russian bear on the other hand, fuck wrestling with him:

Khabib actually wrestled with a russian bear cub

Yes I know, but it was a cub and probably owned by his family. I can imagine there being a decent bear population in Dagestan.
