“Sgt. Reckless” was a pack horse during the Korean war. She carried recoilless rifles, ammunition and supplies to Marines. During the battle for a location called ‘Outpost Vegas’, this mare made 50 trips up and down the hill; on the way up she carried ammunition, and on the way down she carried the wounded. What made her so remarkable was she made every one of those trips through enemy fire and without anyone leading her. #WarHorse
