Based on a real dog that served in the First World War, this is a great story for younger history fans and dog lovers alike. Sgt. Stubby is adopted by a soldier about to ship out to war. Stubby is soon smuggled overseas by this soldier and henceforth becomes a proud member of the 102nd Infantry Regiment. The young dog helps keep the soldiers in his unit happy, but he also keeps them from danger. He sniffs out poison gas, derails enemy soldiers, and accompanies the troops through their battles.
