- Pleiku AFB-633rd-Yep the memories are still there....'67-68 -- Dom Cruz, 19:07:50 11/20/07 TuePST (12.75.136.91)
I was in Pleiku 67-68. Had a fine "four footed radar" courtesy of Uncle Sammy, Chief was the name. One handsome German shepherd - seemed the only K9 he got along with was Penny. I still remember some of the other K9 like Rebel, Putzi, Duke, Dixie, Rex, and others. Troopers all. As handlers we had a comradeship all our own. An example of this is when we were visited by several Army dog handlers fresh from the field. They made it straight to our barracks for a bunk, a long card game and of course some new leashes for the K9. One of the Army dogs in particular was a black lab. Friendly as can be and could alert like crazy. Yep, the memories are still there. God Bless you all.

- Vietnam Dog Information -- Tom Mitchell, 12:35:53 02/23/03 SunPST (68.8.128.108)
Are you a Vietnam Vet dog handler? Do you want to know what happened to your dog?
The VDHA has access to some information about dogs that served in Vietnam. Compiled by Dr. Howard Hayes, these records are a result of his painstaking research into the affect Agent Orange had our dogs. A result of his research is a pretty accurate list of dogs, their brand number, unit and the dispositon of the dog.
So, if you're were a dog handler in Vietnam and would like to know what happened to your dog, e-mail me and we'll look it up for you. If you served after 1968 we have about a 90% chance of finding the info. Prior to that the records were, well, let's say they were not that good, maybe 50%.

...still seems like yesterday with vivid memory reflecting on being a dogman. Remember the intensity of our work as we dutifully went to Guard Mount and we were individually posted on the perimeter; chambering our weapons and changing over to the attack collar. At Phu-Cat AFB it was the walk from the bomb dump road adjacent to Idaho mortar pit as we walked to Kilo 10 Alpha outside the wire. You and your dog! You just got to know not very many people would ever do what we did. It makes me proud to reflect on that phase of our lives and better yet with guys who were called dogmen. For sure we are better men who did this courageous work.

Hello, I'm a MWD trainer out here in Okinawa. I was writing in regards to the old "Military Working Dog Training Center" located at Kadena AB during the Vietnam War. I spoke with a handler from the Vietnam era named, James Polumbo. We found the old kennel area that was used for the MWDTC. I was trying to set something up, like a memorial/tribute for the handlers that make their way back to Okinawa. I was wondering if you anyone had any advice that I could use on getting this started. Please feel free to email me at sedale_berry@yahoo.com or sedale.berry@us.af.mil. Thanks for any advice you can offer in this matter!

- NKP Nightfighters -- Mark Smoot (On the 7th day God created K-9), 21:37:44 11/14/11 MonPST (98.163.0.141)
I attended class 3ALR811306-1 graduating in Feb 1971.Somehow I ended up being chosen Class Leader of 11 other handlers @ the ripe old age of 19.My assigned K-9 Sarge S454 and I both graduated as Honor Graduates.School @ that time was Patrol Dog....the Sentry Dog was being retrained/recertified as a Patrol Dog...not easy and it got real interesting.Assigned to NKP AB Thailand Apr 71-Apr72.Given my choice of dogs to chose from I asked for the one who has the baddest reputation...that turned out to be Jake OX14 referred to as"Crazy Jake" by everyone who came in contact with him.K-9'S call sign was Nightfighter.Hoping someone might respond..Tail up!
