YouTube Description
as posted by the channelMeet Wojtek! 🐻 On April 8, 1942, Polish soldiers adopted an orphaned bear cub, naming him "happy warrior." Wojtek mimicked soldiers, drinking beer, smoking, and marching! He even became a private in the 22nd Artillery Supply Company. During the Battle of Monte Cassino, Wojtek allegedly carried 100-pound artillery crates, outperforming humans! After WW2, he retired to Edinburgh Zoo, visited by Polish veterans who'd toss him cigarettes. An unforgettable tale of wartime camaraderie! #WojtekTheBear #WW2Mascot #PolishArmy #HistoryShorts #Craig #WorldWar2 #AnimalSoldier #BattleOfMonteCassino #MilitaryMascot #BearHistory #WWIIAnimals #AndersArmy #Polish2ndCorps #EdinburghZoo #WarAnimals
