EDITORS COMMENTS
World War II: Mascots. He does his duty and earns his scraps. In this heartwarming photo print, we are transported back to the 1940s amidst the chaos of World War II. Meet Pluto, the beloved mascot of a signal corps unit, who has become an endearing symbol of loyalty and camaraderie. Captured in May 1941, at a regular hour when hunger strikes, Pluto makes his way to the cookhouse with unwavering determination. His reward? Leftover scraps from the soldiers' meals - a small gesture that holds immense significance during these trying times. As if understanding the importance of their service, Pluto extends his paw towards one particular cook in gratitude. This simple act of shaking hands speaks volumes about the bond forged between man and animal on this battlefield. It is a testament to how even in war's darkest moments, compassion and connection can thrive. This photograph captures an unusual sight - a dog actively participating in wartime duties alongside brave soldiers. It serves as a reminder that amidst all destruction and devastation, there were pockets of lightness and joy that kept spirits alive. Let this image transport you back to an era where even our four-legged friends played vital roles in boosting morale and reminding us all what it truly means to serve.
