I'm Michael Peterson, a priest in the Anglican Church of Canada, currently serving a parish in the Diocese of Toronto. I'm also a retired Canadian Forces chaplain , hence the Padre in the title. Mad just means eccentric, and on that note, I also blog on toy soldiers, madpadrewargames.blogspot.com. I'm on X (what used to be Twitter) at @MarshalLuigi and I'm on Bluesky at @madpadre.bsky.social

Thanks to my brother Alex for pointing me to this link about a US military bomb-sniffing dog who returned from a tour of duty in Iraq with what a military veterinarian has diagnsed as a canine version of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
