Synopsis

Only about 180 men and maybe 90 dogs served in this small unit during this entire time period. The dogs did not get to rotate home, and served more than one master. These men and dogs were credited with saving numerous lives. Some of their stories are told in "Cold Noses, Brave Hearts: Dogs and Men of the 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon".
