Trained Dolphins
 

they just said they use them to sniff out mines

In the water and not land. =] The dolphins can also hold a pistol like device with one shot on their snouts. This delivering one round into the stomach of an enemy diver. I think in Vietnam the dolphins had one kill to an enemy diver. Of course the dolphins are also trained to find mines in the water.

you can't be serious

A dolphin could kick your ass, then kick all your friend's asses in alphabetical order.

They also do neat tricks at seaworld

Also.. good thing they use dolphins and not orcas. Orcas love to eat ....ahemm... SEALS.

The drawback with dolphins is that they don't function well in the desert. That's why the coalition forces have this top-secret squadron of trained gophers :)

Thanks for the link PersianKitty.... Very interesting!

thats amazing stuff,, first i hear bout the chickens being used and now dolphins

Yes, the device is hooked on their snout and they ram the enemy diver, which released one round into the enemy. The device only carries one round.

They train here in San Diego. Cool stuff.
