War Dogs of the Pacific
It’s 1942, somewhere in the Pacific: Deadly ambushes by entrenched Japanese in the thick jungles take a heavy toll on American troops. Marine commanders were willing to try anything, including using dogs to sniff out the hidden enemy. But even with their superior senses, nobody anticipated just how effective they would be.

Reviews
Good movie but grossly overrated
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
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
