"If we had a military division of these birds it would face any army in the world!" In this episode we explore one of the wackiest chapters in military history. In 1932, Australia declared war on its native bird, the emu. Veteran soldiers armed with machine guns and high hopes took to the battlefield, ready to take down these seemingly harmless birds. What followed was a series of strange battles that left the Australian army (and the public) scratching their heads in disbelief. Emus, with their lightning-fast speed and surprising cunning, proved to be more than a match for them. Major Meredith And His Merry Men were left dodging beaks and feathers, as the emus outmaneuvered them at every turn. Join us as we delve into the absurdity of the Great Emu War, where machine guns was no match for a horde of feathery foes. Help support the show on Patreon! Sources and Attributions on our website.
