I figure if you want to know Wiki has the answers.
It is sad that animals have died during wars, but at least we acknowledge what they have done. At no point should we take anyone's service for granted. That goes even more so for animals. After all it is our war not theirs.
I still think about Colonel and wonder. Maybe that is what they meant to do, keep us wondering. We can accept loss, it is the not knowing that is hard to take. I just hope he isn't alive living in unhappy circumstances.
