Default Miltary use of animals WWII.

During the war there were many instances of military use of animals, from the cruel, (Soviet Hundminen) to the absurd (PanzerFaust toting Mules), to the very helpful (Elephants on the Ledo Road). Engineers often used indigenous beasts of burden to ease the strain of loading and unloading aircraft and trucks.
