O knihe
Excerpt from The Link, Vol. 9: April-May, 1951
The Japanese used pigeons to their great advantage in the russo-japanese War in 1904. The Japanese, with their characteristic cunning and ingenuity, discovered that homing pigeons could be taught to ¿y back to a mobile loft in new surroundings. During the past two world wars the majority of pigeons ¿ew their messages to such mobile lofts.
Through a highly successful training program, the U. S. Armed forces were able to get 95 percent of their pigeon messages through. Before World War II, pigeons had been trained only to make daylight ¿ights, but the birds are now trained to ¿y at night. And there are birds that will carry their messages in both directions.
