I am becoming obsessed with the military channel as a history buff. War Dogs of the Pacific, even if it is 60% true, is an amazing story of people volunteering their dogs for duty(essentially junkyard dogs in the USA) and being trained for bomb sniffing, reconnaisance, etc. The bond between men(of 18 and a much less worldly 18 then today) and dog was touching and inspiring. It ended with only 4 dogs being euthanized out of 500(for unsuitability- too dangerous- post traumatic stress). I remember seeing "The Courage of Lassie" about this subject. I think this was done 15 years ago as the wwII vets look about 70- and the youngest one now would be about 85. Great show
