There are many documented stories from WW II of USN pilots, forced to ditch in the Pacific, being pushed in their rafts, by dolphins towards Japanese occupied islands. The pilots used their paddles to push the dolphins away. They prefered to wait for pickup by subs or PBYs, rather than face near-certain execution by Japanese captors.
