Re: Horses Remembered
Sadly only one horse was returned to Oz.
Many had to be taken to the beach by their ridders and shot.
It must have been one of the hardest things they had to do, they cared for them, rode them into battle and for that the Army considered them to be a disposable item. Shane on them.
