Sellers, S.N. 89007, War Dog Training Company, Training Center, Camp Le­jeune, North Carolina. Don. formerly of the Cardboard Department, has been engaged in a war duty to his liking; that of training dogs. Don's dog is a Doberman Pincher, named Direck, a large dog and loveable, to Don. The War Dogs are taught to do many duties in combat of which Don is not allowed to re­veal. However, he can say that Direek will work to the b t of an ey or w ve of a hand if and only if it is his. These dogs are f d the best of beef rounds and cerea • groomed at lea t once a day and have k nnels ht for you and me. The entir routine is carried out by the trainer of each individual dog. The lives of these dogs depend upon their trainer. and are appraised aa being worth two to three men in combat. So you can see that War Dog is a very responsible job.
