So, if we’re honoring the fallen horses as well as fallen soldiers, why did most, or all, of the horses they listed survive the war?

What great horses to learn about. I am sure there are many, many more that we will never know.

Sadly, many horses were considered expendable in war, as just another tool. And although it’s better to lose a horse in war than a human soldier, it is still tragic. I’m glad this article points out the equine contribution to the war effort.
