Interesting feedback from Gilles. I've only seen this memento in the photo, which my sister sent. Next phone call, I will ask her what kind of material it's made of. There are tales of GIs staging races with horses from nearby farms. "The Great Stake Race at Anzio Downs" by David Wagner, 39th Combat Engineer, is here: http://www.6thcorpsc...DavidWagner.htm. And the attached photo is from a rodeo on the beachhead.
