What are the rats landmine detection percentage? If one rat cleared a field would you feel comfortable walking through it yourself? Do you overlap their clearance tracks for a kind of "two rat integrity?"

Thank you for your time Dr. Fast! Follow up question:
I'm an EOD Technician so I know there are countless different types of landmines and many use all different kinds of explosives, are the rats trained specifically for an order of battle in one area? As in, just the types of mines known to be used in one area? Or are they very versatile in the many different types of explosives they are able to detect?

Awesome, thank you for the answer and for doing what you do! Mines are nasty business and I'm glad there are people like you all who work so hard to get rid of them.

How were you and your fellow POW's treated by the Germans in your time there?

I am in the military and I received the mandatory training in 2017 regarding the transition process for trans service members, and one thing that stood out to me is that it allowed an amount of non-deployable time in excess of 1 year.
So while anecdotally your situation may be different, the military has planned for and allowed non-deployable status for far larger amounts of time than are currently afforded to anybody else under the “deploy or get out” policy.
This is not propoganda.
