Feathered Warriors Deliver
Important Messages, Give

Moline, 111. (U,R) Homing
pigeons, the unsung heroes, are
playing a prominent part with
their message-carrying in the
war.
Leslie C. Swanson of Moline,
111., author of two books and a
number of magazine articles on
the subject of homing or racing
pigeons, has compiled a list of
accomplishments of the Allies'
feathered warriors which In
clude such things as bringing
help to fliers downed at sea or
in isolated sectors, flying infor
mation from occupied Europe to
England and serving as a com
munication link with advance
forces. Pigeons are also used by
dirigibles and planes to provide
data on the location of sub
marines when radio messages

2-Way Flying
War developments are like
wise affecting the pigeons, vast
changes having been introduced
in the methods of handling
them. Such Innovations as two
way flying and night-flying
birds are a product of World
War II. Whereas birds in World
War I could fly only one way
from the point of liberation to
their home loft pigeons now
carry messages back and forth
from two points, a hitherto un
heard of operation. How it is
done is a carefully guarded
military secret.
Despite recent exaggerated
claims that pigeons are flying
300 miles an hour, Mr. Swan
son reports that the speed of
the average bird is 42.5 miles
an hour, more or less, depend
ing upon wind and weather
conditions, ith a tail wind a
Detroit pigeon recently set a
record of 80 miles an hour.
Thouiands Donated
Much credit for the success
of the U. S. army's pigeon serv
ice is due to tne civilian fan
ciers, who donated thousands of
birds to the government and
contributed a great number of
men from then ranks to handle
them. Although the government
offered to purchase the birds
when the pigeon service was
organized, the civilians in most
cases showed their patriotism by

Mr. Swanson emphasizes that
the pigeons are correctly called
homing or racing pigeons and
not "carrier" pigeons, a com
mon error of the public and
many magazine and newspaper
writers in discussing this type
of pigeon. According to Mr.
Swanson the "carrier" pigeon
is an entirely different type of
bird and does not carry any
thing, being a bird used largely
for exhibition and fancy pur
poses. The misnomer of "car
rier" was probably attached to
the homing pigeon because it
"carries" messages.
