Frankly I was disappointed that there are no pics of pigeons wearing Maiden Form bras.

But what about pigeons wearing bras? And why would a Bra wear a pigeon? Fashion is weird

One of the rooms at Bletchley Park is currently dedicated to the pigeons of war. Worth a look if you're in the area.

History is full of tiny details that sound so bizarre today.

Can you imagine a pigeons POV of jumping off a plane attached to a soldier, flak exploding everywhere, mg tracers zipping by. Must have been quite a ride.

Pigeons did actually contribute to the Allied war effort. There is a recent book called *Secret Pigeon Service * by Gordon Corera which is about the use of carrier pigeons to smuggle messages from the French Resistance.

How does one wear a pigeon? How does a bra wear them?

I couldn’t figure out why paratroopers needed to have pigeons deliver bras to them.

“General sir! They’re gaining the upper hand on that ledge. Permission to wear this bra while we launch counter attack?”

Yeah I feel like if you write an article titled "Back When Pigeons Wore Bras" and don't include a single image of a busty pigeon, you should get your writer license suspended for at least a year.

And here I thought the only birds that wore bras were boobies

Panty wearing doves tried, but didn't save anyone.

You know Oglaf is pretty consistently funny, I enjoy the running gags and the art style itself and the queer inclusivity of it - but Oglaf is at its best when it’s not just a sexy spoof on sword and sorcery tropes, but also has an absurdist element to it, like this one.

It's amazing that such a miscommunication from the British to the Americans worked out in our favor.

"We need birds wearing nothing but bras to help the troops!"

This sounds like an overused Reddit joke, but there's a pigeon wearing a vest/bra right under the semi-naked woman right at the top of the article.

(I missed it too at first.)

They were just vests, since pigeons don't have breasts.

But "bras" attracts more clicks, I guess.

This subreddit is starting to look more and more like a Facebook feed.
