Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc - "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."
