What do a tortoise, a horse, and a bear have in common? The History Guy podcast features three stories of animals who served as military mascots. First is Timothy the Tortoise, who was the last surviving veteran of the Crimean War. Then, The History Guy remembers Sgt. Reckless, a horse who served with the U.S. Marines in Korea, carrying munitions, performing heroic feats, and eating almost everything. Finally, we have the story of Winnie the Pooh - both Christopher Robin Milne's teddy bear, and the military mascot who shared his name.
