Found in the Swiss Army Regulations ( valid until 1995):
"Selfreproducing small flying object on organic base with tight programmed automatic return from any direction and distance."
What is that? :-

My first thought was a boomarang ... no, my second though was a boomarang, my first thought was "I wonder if Milday can do that thing my ex-wife used to do?", but let's not go into that - Milady's capacity with a skillet is not something fit for the lower forms of life like myself to contemplate - anyway my third thought was some kind of flying insect.
Unless it's those organic homing bullets the Swiss army tested in 1989.
Messenger pigeon?

The insects ate them all. :(
Didn't the Swiss army have carrier pigeons that could uniquely fly between two stations? One where they slept and one where they were fed?

Maybe they attached a very ductile rubber band to the pigeon's leg, fastening the other end to an alphorn, St Bernard, or perhaps a gnome: bird drops message, and no longer has the body mass to resist being elastically zipped back from Uri to Zuerich.
