Bacchus, ship dog of the Free French minelaying submarine Rubis (P15) poses under the 75 mm deck gun with his new "Valiant Dog" medal, awarded in Dundee, August 1941
"Born at the Cherbourg naval base in 1937 from parents submariners. Embarked on the Rubis the same year. Participated in all missions from 1940 to 1945. Died on board in June 1945 in Scotland, buried in Dunoon."
"He does not know the meaning of fear. Whatever noise he hears - and you know that depth charges make nasty ones sometimes - he never takes the slightest notice. When we all suffer from lack of fresh air he never makes the slightest fuss. He just behaves like one of us. Even in the worst cases - and you know we were in a few tough spots - Bacchus never loses his nerve. For the crew it is very comforting, especially in bad cases, to watch him behaving with such confidence and with such a reassuring look, something like "Don't worry, old man, we all know what it is, but we will see it throught."
Awarded for exemplary behaviour during his 10th patrol, the medal is currently displayed in the Invalides Army Museum.
