| Description: | "Trained German Shepherd dogs prove themselves in Vietnam during scout and sentry duty. Several have been wounded and killed in action while protecting U.S. bases from sneak attack." MS/TLSs German Shepherd dog running obstacle course, climbing stairs, jumping though obstacles & over walls and balancing across wood fence. MS U.S. Army soldier dressed in thick bite-proof foam padding suit, "imitating a Viet Cong," jumping & screaming at trained dog, encouraging him to attack; MS/CUs dog attacking padded hand of soldier, trainer eventually calling the dog off. CU U.S. Army dog trainer; MS German Shepherd dog sitting, panting, long tongue lolling, hanging down. H/a TLS GI dressed in black pajama top and straw hat (I guess indiscriminately imitating the entire male Vietnamese population) antagonizing muzzled dog; leashed dog pulls trainer, chases & attacks "Viet Cong." | |
