Review (PDF) Cold Noses, Brave Hearts: Dogs And Men Of The 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon
Robert and Sandra wrote this book to honor the men and dogs who served with the 26th Infantry Scout Dog Platoon during World War Two and Korea. 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".

An excelent history of war dogs from the 2nd world war to the present. The stories related by the dog handlers and others show how important these dogs were to the war effort. All pet lovers should read this book.
I bought this book because my father served proudly with this 26th Infantry Platoon. There are photos of him and others that he supplied for the book. I am glad I learned more about this group. I am proud of my father and the fellow soldiers.I wish I would've asked more questions about he training of dogs. Thank you for the great book
What a great history of these great 4 legged warriors during WWII and Korea. Every MWD Handler and those that adopt these outstanding 4 legged warriors should take the time to read this and see the history how the K9's got there start...
my father is written about in this book and love how the book was written on serivce dogs and the guys who fought in the various wars.
Very interesting reading for those who are military history buffs, as well as dog lovers. Amazing accounts of these wonderfully trained dogs under extreme conditions. My hat goes off to every trainer, handler, and dog that undertook these very dangerous but necessary missions.
