Duke, a German shepard dog
from Boston, joined the army 13
months ago. Teamed with an
army sergeant, he served in New
Guinea, through the Cape Glou
cester campaign, ‘and is now
moving up this jungle coast with
U.S. Marines in pursuit of re
treating Japs, the Navy depart
ment said. Duke could scent and
“point” a Jap three-quarters of
a mile away, and has flushed
scores of Japs, has been through
more than 60 air raids, can dive
for a foxhole like any Marine,
and the sergeant says, “He’s the
smartest dog I’ve ever seen.
