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.

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Tied for the best movie I have ever seen
It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Blistering performances.
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
