Cher Ami: A homing pigeon who saved 194 lives in World War I. He was shot through the breast, blinded in one eye, and had a leg hanging only by a tendon, but still delivered the message!
MelonYellow, 
What a bird. Thank you for your service, Cher Ami!
VaultBoyNewVegas, There’s an animated movie about carrier pigeons in WW2. Think it’s called Valiant.
kemsat, This pigeon was more honorable than most recent US presidents.
FfaerieOxide, 
And they fucking stuffed him?
Imagining them doing that with other soldiers, too.
bane_killgrind, This pigeon was referenced in "The gentleman"
