Some respected veterans will soon be allowed to go out for the pasture. American army has Announced plans To refund the same program dramatically your military work. Of the 236 horses, donkeys and mules, 141 who work for the US Army are mostly in formal processions, being inserted for adoption.

Army spokesperson Steve Warren told reporters that the four-foot soldiers are “part of the army family.” “We are going to treat them with compassion.”

The 26th Cavalry Regiment has not fought the US Army horses since the 1942 Battle led by a cavalry allegation.

Yet a horse that serves his country is no less important when his service is mostly formal – in parade, honor guards and funeral.

3 In -Combat Aviation Brigade, Captain Ladia Laga, a public affair officer for the third Infantry Division, said, “Horses never had horses.” “They were part of breathing for a living, American military heritage, for a time when Thundering Hows marked both the ceremony and the strategy … a piece of army culture that stood clearly opposite the digital age.”

I have gone to military funeral in the Arlington National Cemetery, sometimes as a reporter, sometimes as a mourning. There is some extraordinary and eloquent to see the horses, which tolerates the coffin of a fallen soldier, which is under the folds of stars and stripes.

Returning the working ecwid program should save the army about $ 2 million per year – out of an annual budget of over $ 185 billion. But they will continue to keep formal animals in the Arlington National Cemetery and Joint Base San Antonio. Only those horses will continue to work.
