Shrine Stories: Pigeons
Pigeons. We love to hate them. But did you know they once played a critical and often life-saving role in military service? In this episode, we uncover the remarkable role of pigeons in wartime and the stories of two feathered Dickin Medal winners who saved dozens of lives. Correction: In this recording, it was stated that a pigeon travelled 65 km in 15 minutes. The correct timing is 65 km in 50 minutes.
