text: It was 1945, World War 2 was over in Europe, and many countries were left in ruins. These countries needed food supplies, animals, and more to recover. Thats when 44 nations joined together to form UNRRA. UNRRA was an administration that hired "Seagoing Cowboys" to take care of animals that were shipped overseas. Thats when Don and I signed up for the Seagoing Cowboys.
