"I pulled George out of the bay at Noumea. The Ship's photographer made up a liberty card for him. George lived with me in the Lighting Shop for over a year and went over the hill when we reached Seattle."

In 1944 some Navy men rescued a kitten and filled out all the forms for him like this.

@futurebird I had a buddy who was a Marine and on one deployment, a three-legged dog adopted his unit. When time came to head back to the US, they built a well-ventilated crate for him and put on it the barcode for a tripod. The aircrew doing the cargo load scanned the crate, agreed that it contained a tripod, and loaded him on the plane. He was thus completely within the regulations to be shipped back. His barcode matched his description.
