History:
During World War I, carrier pigeons were an essential means of communication, capable of delivering messages quickly and reliably when telegraph lines were cut or radios unavailable. Dispatch riders often transported these birds to and from the front lines, ensuring commanders received critical information. The British military relied heavily on this method, with pigeons credited for saving countless lives. This figure captures a rare but vital aspect of wartime operations, providing modellers with a unique subject to enrich their WWI scenes.
