I'm thirteen and bought this book at my scholastic book fair in school.
I thought it was going to be about Navy Seals and their dogs going on missions, but I was mistaken. The first 2/3 of the book were about how he trained the dogs. there are only about 4 short chapters about their missions, and that is only the first couple of pages of those four chapters. The rest of those four pages are a bout how the dogs and their handlers met. There are a total of about 15 chapters. I was a little disappointed and felt like a wasted $8.00.
The writing was good though.

A very good, well written story. It takes a while to get to the war part of the book, as the first 100 pages in the book are about him at home. It is a definite must read to readers who like the world war era. But be prepared, it has a very sudden ending that you would not expect. It leaves you at a big cliffhanger in the end. Overall though, it is a very good story.
