Don’t forget our War Animals this ANZAC Day. Here is a poem to help with our remembrance. The Military Dog in the artwork is Kuga who was awarded the Dickin Medal.

THE MILITARY DOG
Poem and artwork by Ian Coate

We’ve lost another soldier – our firm and faithful friend.
So swift of feet and strong of heart – so loyal to the end.

He was a combat soldier – ideal in every way
In action he was fearless – the first into the fray.

He was my shield between our foes – my sword within a fight.
My ears within the stillness – my eyes within the night.

We bonded in our training – he had a trooper’s soul.
If not for his protection – we couldn’t do our role.

And now he has departed – he served his country true.
So don’t forget my loyal mate – who died for me and you.
