@thewanderingbeard2.0: During the brutal battle of Tarawa in 1943, U.S. Marines landed on a tiny Pacific island under devastating fire. Amoung them was an unexpected figure - a domesticated duck named Sgt. Siwash. Brought ashore with the marines, Siwash became a symbol of morale and resilience amid one of WWII's bloodiest battles. #truestory #duck #ww2 #marines #hero

Amanda :

I saw the picture and thought "no way someone was mauled by a duck".

Beauty_ofthe_Beast :

does that make Sgt Siwash one of the first female marines to see battle? 🫡

Mike333West :

someone get Pixar on the phone right now

Leah :

Literally spat out my drink at ‘wing to wing combat’ 😂😂😂

Jess Marie :

Mikayla :

before you started the story I saw the duck in the background and was like did someone get mauled by a duck? 😂 this story was so much better

Sara Gene Rhodes :

I’m genuinely impressed that you managed to keep a straight face through this entire story. You should take up poker.

Vasha Jo’vel :

Not wing to wing combat 🤣

LyzDee1013 :

What the duck 😆

Al Livas :

Why am I crying

new.chapter.46 :

This should be made into a children's book! ❤

✨♈️ Chaotic Aries ♈️✨ :

That duck saw more than any living being should ever have to see😞

AliMcKSEAL🆘🇺🇸🆘 :

My son’s unit at AIT last summer in San Antonio ended up with a stray cat outside of their barracks. He’s a 68 whisky (combat medic). They named the cat 68 whiskers and he keeps them all company at fort Sam Houston. No combat but a definite morale booster. He has his own IG account. ❤

Ally Pearl :

This is why I still have tiktok

MandaMaeBee :

We learned about her in the “famous Marines” unit of MCJROTC.

gojos wet tits :

i’m sorry but the way you were addressing the duck like she was one of the soilders is killing me 😭😭

Rebecca ingles :

How did you keep a straight face thru this 😂

Vanessa :

So brave

for everyone asking, no you probably can't be killed by a duck, but a swan or a goose can most definitely drown you if they attack while your in water.
