    Thumbs up Was watching Mysteries at the Museum tonight...

    I don't know how many of you watch the show Mysteries at the Museum but it's a great show highlighting interesting items from all types of museums.
    I was watching an episode tonight and they did a piece on a bear in Poland. Check out the website below and read about this bear.
    Real cool story!

    It was a great tail for sure.
    I loved this part of it.

    "During the conflict, Wojtek found himself at the artillery firing line where he was seen to move crates of ammunition close to a truck where he was chained. Henryk had been assigned to take care of the bear that day but when he was ordered forward as an artillery spotter, he had to leave Wojtek alone. Always inquisitive and willing to copy what the soldiers were doing, he began picking up the crates and moving towards the cannons. The sounds of gunfire did not concern him and he displayed courage in his willingness to participate in the action. After the battle, the official badge of the 22nd Transport Company became a likeness of Wojtek holding a shell. This symbol appeared on vehicles, pennants and on the uniforms of the soldiers."
