War Service is the story of a real dog - a dog who served the United States courageously during the Second World War, giving his life to our country.
While working for the Animal Welfare League in Arlington, Virginia, Eilleen Gardner Galer came across a letter from the War Department detailing this dog's heroic deeds and untimely death. Ms. Galer felt that more people should be aware of the great services performed by such canines. Dogs were used throughout the war and served brilliantly as messengers and companions, enabling communications under conditions where men and radio were useless.
While War Service is fiction, the incidents and characters in this book are based upon real life. Ms. Galer has written a riveting story borrowing facts and characters from her own long life spanning the 20th Century. You will find War Service an accurate retrospective of patriotism in our country from recollections of the Civil War to the Second World War.
