10:30Now PlayingDid you know the military enlisted the help of bears, bee's, cattle and dolphins to help fight the enemy? Military history shows us commanders will try anything once.

Animals with jobs are usually happy even it meant they were drafted into service. Horses have been used in warfare for as long as they've been domesticated with Alexander the Great using them effectively in his "Companion Cavalry". You might be aware that dogs were used in the Army especially in Delta Force but you probably don't know about the attempt to do an amphibious beach assault with millions of dogs.
