Sergeant Reckless: A True Story of Bravery and Loyalty In 1952, a group of US Marines stumbled upon a bedraggled mare in need of help. They soon discovered that this skinny, underfed horse had one of the biggest hearts they'd ever known. Despite being trained as a packhorse, Reckless showed remarkable bravery and strength, carrying ammunition that was too heavy for the soldiers to haul. As cannons thundered and shells flew through the air, Reckless marched into battle again and again, earning her place in history as the only animal to officially hold military rank. She received two Purple Hearts for her heroism, a testament to her unwavering loyalty and bravery. This inspiring true story is beautifully illustrated by acclaimed artist Iacopo Bruno. First picture book from award-winning novelist Patricia McCormick, Sergeant Reckless is a heartwarming tale of courage and companionship that will leave you in awe of this remarkable horse's spirit.
