ReplyDeleteI did not know any of this about the Airedales in the World War II. It makes me feel so good to see these pictures and I say thank you to all the animals and to the people who were in all of the wars. Thank you for your service soldiers and animals
ReplyDeleteWe thank all of the men, women and canines for their service.
ReplyDeleteWe never knew their were Airedales in service during WW II. We thank everyone who has served our country in the military.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great post. So interesting. I shall feel a bit less annoyed now, next time someone asks if I'm an Airedale. (Which happens on a regular basis).
ReplyDeleteToodle pip!

Wow! We didn't know about the Airedales in WW II. Amazing! Yesterday there was a special celebration for the veterans who live at the nursing home where my GW works.
ReplyDeleteWe join you in thanking, honoring, and remembering all of the veterans too, Ruby. Thanks for telling us about those brave Airedales.

All the enemy had to do was carry a lot of treats
ReplyDeleteHad no idea about how your kinsfolk served in the war. We can just see in in our minds someone standing to the right of the picture holding treats so they would all look that direction!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that, Ruby. Kismet just made me laugh! Yes, treats must have been a mighty weapon!
ReplyDeleteI can see where Airedales would be awesome sentries. We had one come watch us bike by it’s house the other day. Dang! Y’all are y’all! BOL!
