Another Never-Ending Kitten Thread

In 1943, U.S. forces considered using armed dogs against fortifications. The aim was for a dog to run into a bunker carrying a bomb, which would then be detonated by a timer. Dogs in this secret program were trained at Fort Belvoir. The dogs, called "demolition wolves", were taught to run to a bunker, enter it, and sit whilst waiting for a simulated explosion. Each dog carried a bomb strapped to its body in canvas pouches, as with the Russian method. The program was terminated on December 17, 1943 out of safety concerns. During the training, dogs often returned to the senders without entering the bunker or waiting there for supposed period of time which would have caused friendly casualties in a live fire situation. It was feared that in the actual battle, dogs would return much more often, scared by enemy fire. Attempts to continue the program in 1944 and 1945 failed.

William A. Prestre, a Swiss citizen living in Santa Fe, New Mexico, proposed using large dogs to kill Japanese soldiers. He convinced the military to lease an entire island in the Mississippi River to house the training facilities. There the army hoped to train as many as two million dogs. The idea was to begin island invasions with landing craft releasing thousands of dogs against the Japanese defenders, then followed up by troops as the Japanese defenders scattered in confusion. One of the biggest problems encountered was getting Japanese soldiers to train the dogs, as very few Japanese soldiers were being captured. Eventually, Japanese-American soldiers volunteered for the training. The biggest problem was the dogs, as they were either too docile, did not respond to training teaching them to rush across beaches, or were terrified by shellfire. After millions of dollars were spent, the program was abandoned.

Atleast they didn't eat them. Phew.
 
My kid's godmother is from Beijing and has served me dog.

She sold her mules to a guy in Little Argentine and when she told me, I said, Mmmm, Burro-eato...

She looked at me wide-eyed horror, "You people eat MULES?"


:D :D :D

I've never seen ancient Aliens...

You should see Ancient Aliens at least once. It's an experience that leaves you hovering between hysterical laughter and arguing with your television. It's quite brilliant that way, actually, which I'm sure accounts for its appeal to 90% of its viewers. The other 10% are scary.

I'm glad to say I've never seen a cat on fire.

There are several badly made movies that show our Navy doing similar things with dolphins. The big difference, though, is that the dogs and dolphins were at least being trained for the job. To snatch a wild cat and attempt this is insane unless you really enjoy having shreds of your own bloody flesh hanging off your arms and torso.
