Do You Know The Story of Wojtek The Soldier Bear?

In 1942, a local boy found a bear cub near Hamadan, Iran. He sold it to the soldiers of the Polish Army stationed nearby for a couple of canned meat tins. As the bear was less than a year old, he initially had problems swallowing and was fed with condensed milk from an emptied vodka bottle.....To get him on a British transport ship when the unit sailed from Egypt to fight with the British 8th Army in the Italian campaign, he was officially drafted into the Polish Army as a private and was listed among the soldiers of the 22nd Artillery Supply Company of the Polish II Corps. Henryk Zacharewicz and Dymitr Szawlugo were assigned as his caretakers.

Wojtek saw action during Monte Casino and would help his fellow soldiers transport ammunition. That's how the 22nd Artillery Supply Company got its insignia.

Following the war Wojtek rose through the ranks and went on to command the Polish army from 1958 until his death in 1963.
