The last homing pigeon, "Cher Ami" survived the battle and later after its death was stuffed and put on display as a hero.

Stuffed and put on display? Man, don't let your imagination go too far with this one...

Good Morning SAM, you've been very busy already!
It's interesting to see how many bomb craters still mark the European countryside...

Good Morning, Hi-Jinx.

There were still a lot of the old air-raid bunkers around in Germany when I was there in 71. I go to see the one my mom spent many a night in.

Cher Ami. (Note the one leg.)
