I didn't know that dogs were used during wars.

They really are man's best friends. Imagine them even helping us win a war.

I wonder if they gave Medals of Honor to those dogs.

they do give medals to war dogs, just as if they are regular soldiers. I'm not sure what they're called, though.

Yeah, I remember watching this documentary about war dogs in Vietnam once. They were interviewing American war-hardened veterans about their experiences. When the soldiers were asked about their dog companions and how they felt about being forced to abandon them, they were suddenly very emotional; some even cried. It brought a tear to my eye Sad
