Yes, it was Snoopy who made the Sopwith Camel into a famous plane again in the 1960's. The Red Baron would certainly have been surprised had he known this would happen...

If the Germans had had such a dog flying for them, it would undoubtedly have been a dachshund named "Schnaps" or something like that, and you would have had a real dogfight! Dachshunds are tenacious little devils.
