How Homing Pigeons Helped Win the War
ATLANTA - Tammy Hanley of Peoria loves to talk about the
role homing pigeons played in World War II. She’ll quickly inform
you that there were 56,000 pigeons trained - and 32,000 used - in
combat during that conflict. Dressed in the uniform of a Women’s
Army Corps enlistee, and featuring several of her live pigeons in
World War II-era harness, Tammy will present a program on how
carrier pigeons carried vital messages between Allied troops and
ultimately helped us win World War II. (Click
