Coast Guard has the weirdest dog stuff
Like serving them beer and putting them in tubas.
08 Jan 1946, New York, New York, USA --- "Sinbad," the Coast Guard's salty globe-trotting mascot, who has served eight years at sea and sailed more than a million miles, rests proudly in the big horn of seaman 1/C Stefano Condatore, when the famous dog arrived in New York from Japan on the cutter Campbell and received a welcome fitting a real hero. Plans call for Sinbad to be feted in a jeep parade, civic receptions, dinners, and a network radio program. --- Image by © Bettmann/CORBIS
