"I feel that by the fact that me and three other men that worked with Hobo came home alive, he more than likely saved our lives but many others who were walking behind us on patrols." -Ronald Smart |
"He latched onto my hand. He gave me a friendly nip on the hand and looked at me. Wolf absolutely would not let me go by him. I looked straight ahead and not more than two feet was a tripwire. And I would have died right there with him if he wouldn't have found that wire." -Charlie Cargo |
"There wasn't a correspondent or photographer there that could resist taking pictures of the dogs or talking with the handlers, yet our presence and the job we did remained mostly unknown here. What happened???" -"Pete" Peters |
"Hobo was put to sleep at the end of my tour. I guess the army thought he was of no use to them anymore, I had no say in the matter, but the public at large seems to be quite upset after finding out about this fact." -Ronald Smart |
"Beau's job was not to let anyone trigger a booby trap. He'd been taught it was better to attack a GI than have a mine pop into the air and detonate at the level of everybody's head." -Joe Kirkup |
