Archivist Thought He Found Lost WWII Footage From 1942. He Found Puppies Instead
January 11, 2023
The long forgotten "Battle of the Bark".
An archivist found a long forgotten 8mm film reel in an old metal box, marked "Philippines 1942".
Thinking it was lost WWII footage, he sent it in to be restored/digitized.
When he got the footage back, he found puppies instead.
