Wojtek the Soldier Bear
« on: April 15, 2013, 12:56:36 am »
This is pretty awesome.

He's like a badass version of Winnie the Bear (the inspiration for Winnie the Pooh).

Sorry, this is a little random. I was gonna put it in off-topic, but it's sorta historical...

Of course, I also think lines should be able to move in double rank without having emotional breakdowns.

World War 2 had some crazy characters, check out "Mad" Jack Churchill.

Indeed, Wojtek was a pretty amazing animal. I love the legend of the Allied soldiers not being allowed to take animals to Italy, so the Poles enlisted Wojtek as a Private and waved his papers in the faces of the officials.
