A first-hand account of the U.S. Army's pigeon service in World War II, written by a pigeoneer who served in North Africa and Italy with what became the 209th Signal Pigeon Company. Hayes worked on the front lines with famous birds such as G.I. Joe, Yank and Rain-in-the-Face, and tells the stories of the messages they carried. He self-published the book in 1981 as a limited first edition. Essential for collectors of military pigeon history and WWII Signal Corps memorabilia.
