Rhyming Poem contest entry
Contest entry for rhyming poem: 2003, Makai was only one of many dolphins used to detect underwater mines in the Port of Umm Qasr in the Gulf of Persia. US, UK and many other forces used dolphins to seek out and mark enemy mines. Not always perfect according to sonar readings. Still saved ships and men.
