federal regulation that denies
the taxpayer any knowledge of

Dig Platoon
Ready 70 Meet
Almy's Demand
Canine Contingent
Sill Same AS After
World War III; Stationed
~ Fort Riley, Kansas
By STANLEY JAMES

WASHINGTON, D. c.-(Spe-
cial-The mobilization effort
has affected everyone in the
country but the dogs, il seems. A
Pentagon spokesman explained
this wsek that the Army's canine
contingent is still the same as it
was after World War II demobili-
zatiQn-r0ne platoon. That platoon
is ststieaaed at Fort Riley, Kansas.
Aslxen whether any expansion
of the dog training program was
anticipated, an Army officer
said This week that no expansion
is e,spected Immediately, but that
if the Army is built up to any
where near World War II proper
tons additional dogs will be
needed
Most people don't realize it,
but Army dogs are used for va
riouS purposes - carrying mess
sageS scouting, mine detection,
sentry, and sledsing and pack
work During the last war the
number of dogs proeessed
through Army training centers
reacEedsd9,00e OF the total num-
Der, more than half passed the
course, land were ordered to
duty. s
The gfeatest number were en-
ployed for sentry work, in which
the alefffiess and warnings Of
the dogs won universal praise.
Especially in the dark, when
human eyes and the human nose
cannot sense the approach of an
intruder, were the sentry dogs
valuable.
The Army tried all sorts of
dogs end various breeds. The list
was sfinally narrowed to five
animals Giant ScFinanzer, the
farm-type Collie, the Dobermatt
Pinschef Belgian Sheepdog and
the German Shepherd. The latter
breed according to The Army,
proved the most satisfactory.
Army officers in the Pentagon
say the platoon at Fort Riley is
{ more than able to maifitain its
strength. After the last war
many dogs were returned to their
owners. but one platoon was re-
tanned at Fort Riley. New adj
ditiors to the platoon more than
compensates for deaths.
The Army also has two train
ing centers in Germany, one at
Kitzinger and one at Schwabach.
But annNArmy spokesman this
week. sald these dogs are only
"Semizrnilitaty.n Some have
civilian INSTRUCTORS or work with
civilians. and the dogs are not
necessarily f'paper'' dogs, some
being outright mongrels. But
neither are Fort Riley's dogs all
of Single breed or description.
You CANT tell by looks.
We've had an inquiry or two
from former training instructors
of Wsrld. War H. Pentagon of
ficer said They're ready to do
that work again - but we haven't
any openings yeti The dogs,
who love the training routine,
are one segment Of the economy
