      Sergeant Stubby (July 21, 1916 – March 16, 1926), has been called the most decorated war dog of World War I and the only dog to be nominated for rank and then promoted to sergeant through combat, a claim for which there is no official documentary evidence, but is recognized in connection with an exhibition at the Smithsonian Institution.He was the official mascot of the 102nd Infantry Regiment (United States), assigned to the 26th (Yankee) Division. Stubby served for 18 months and participated in seventeen battles on the Western Front. He saved his regiment from surprise mustard gas attacks, found and comforted the wounded, and once caught a German soldier by the seat of his pants, holding him there until American soldiers found him. Back home, his exploits were front page news of every major newspaper.

      There’s actually a pretty decent animated movie about Sergeant Stubby. It’s a bit more suited for kids given how it tried to remove some more traumatizing aspects of war, but it definitely has some serious tones and accurate historical events. I definitely think it’s worth watching if you need something to watch in a pinch.
