TIL about Chief, the US Army's last living operational cavalry horse. He died in 1968 at 36. He was buried with full military honors, in an upright position, in Ft. Riley Kansas, at the base of the statue 'Old Trooper' (shown below).

I also learned that when actress Tilly Keeper auditioned for the role of 'Louise Mitchell' on East Enders, she thought she was trying out for a different part.

In learning that, I learned that Tilly's father's name is Peter. Peter Keeper. Snicker.

I guess the surname of Holder might have been worse.
