Synopsis

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.

Skunkyrate Gripping story with well-crafted characters
Freaktana A Major Disappointment
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
olderbutwiser 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
