    THE ROLE of the PIGEON in the FIRST WORLD WAR ______Hendrik Snyders

    133 ‘MORE THAN JUST HUMAN HEROES’ THE ROLE OF THE PIGEON IN THE FIRST WORLD WAR ___________________________________________ Hendrik Snyders Abstract Due to their centrality in war communications, carrier pigeons, lofts and pigeon handlers were legitimate targets for enemy forces during the First World War (1914–18). As a result of the multi-faceted nature and conflicting interests associated with the post-war debate on appropriate ways of memorialising the war dead (humans), the contribution the animals was largely excluded from the discussions and rarely considered. Belgian and French pigeon fanciers in particular, who as moral witnesses to the slaughter of their birds and brethren, were the exception. They took action to supplement the military and quasi-military, as well as informal recognition extended to war pigeons and their handlers, by erecting official monuments to honour their war dead. Responding to current debates that question animal memorialisation in general, this article, which is largely based on contemporary news reports, reports on an investigation of the early war pigeon memorials, their nature, form symbolism and meaning for the affected community within the context of animal and war memorialisation generally. Introduction Despite a stream of publications acknowledging the war-time role of non- human animals,1 a small group of critics maintained that animal memorialisation is an inappropriate fad2 that trivialises and ‘disneyfies’ the ugliness of war while side- lining human suffering through the foregrounding of non-human sacrifice.3 Indeed, suggests Appleton, the promotion of non-human animal memorialisation has effectively led to a situation where “the tomb of the unknown pigeon takes the place of the unknown soldier”.4 Far from being throw-away statements, these sentiments may be directly related to descriptions of the Scientia Militaria, South African late 20th-century upsurge in war Journal of Military Studies, Vol memorialisation as not only a “boom”5 but 43, No.

    BRAVE BIRDS By: PDSA - the UK’s leading veterinary charity. Additional text and photos courtesy of Australian War Memorial and UK Flightglobal Archive. The most famous and the oldest of the charity’s awards is the PDSA Dickin Medal. It acknowledges outstanding acts of bravery displayed by animals serving with the Armed Forces or Civil Defence units in any theatre of war, worldwide. The Medal is recognised as the animals’ Victoria Cross and is the highest British honour for animal bravery in military conflicts. The medal was instituted in 1943 Maria Dickin. Maria Dickin CBE PDSA owes its foundation to the vision of one woman - Maria Elisabeth Dickin - and her determination to raise the status of animals, and the standard of their care, in society. During the First World War, Maria Dickin CBE worked to improve the dreadful state of animal health in the Whitechapel area of London. She wanted to open a clinic where East Enders living in poverty could receive free treatment for their sick and injured animals. Left: Despite the scepticism of the Establishment, Maria Dickin opened her free 'dispensary' in a Whitechapel basement on Saturday 17th November 1917. It was an immediate success and she was soon forced to find larger premises. Photo PDSA. Within six years this extraordinary woman had designed and equipped her first horse-drawn clinic and soon a fleet of mobile dispensaries was established. PDSA vehicles soon became a comforting and familiar sight throughout the country. With success came increased attention from her critics at the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and the Ministry of Agrigulture.

Kauila made her home at the bottom of a freshwater spring that the Hawaiians named after her, called Ka wai hu o Kauila – the rising waters of Kauila. Children would come to play in the spring and Kauila would transform herself into a girl to watch over them. Kauila became the guardian of the children and the life-giving spring that produced fresh water for the people of Punaluu. Cover: Photo mosaic of a leatherback hatchling in Papua New Guinea.

Hicks/benjhicks.com 2 | SWOT REPORT SEATURTLESTATUS.ORG | 1 2 | SWOT REPORT Editor’s Note No Sea Turtle Is an Island ise men and women throughout history have shown us that, “there is Wpower in unity and there is power in numbers” (Martin Luther King Jr., 1963). That is certainly the case with the State of the World’s Sea Turtles (SWOT) program, the world’s largest volunteer network of sea turtle researchers, conservationists, and enthusiasts. This volume of SWOT Report unifies an enormous cast: from the hundreds of researchers in more than 20 countries, whose collective efforts can be seen in the first-ever global-scale map of loggerhead sea turtle telemetry (pp. 32–33), to the beach workers from the Wider Caribbean Sea Turtle Conservation Network (WIDECAST) and beyond, whose labors are seen in this issue’s maps of sea turtle biogeography (pp. 24–27). As you peruse these cartographic works of art, reflect for a moment on the time, effort, and passion that went into each of those tiny, tinted polygons of telemetry data or the myriad multicolored circles of nest abundance. Together they represent the labors of a multitude of beach workers, synergistically amassed to bring big-picture visualizations of sea turtle natural history to life as never before.
