Inspired by the remarkable true story of Sgt. Stubby, a stray Boston Terrier mix who wandered onto the 102nd Infantry Regiment training grounds at Yale University in July 1917.
Smuggled aboard a troopship to France by Private Robert Conroy, Stubby served 18 months on the Western Front — warning soldiers of gas attacks before humans could detect the odor, locating wounded doughboys in No Man's Land, and single-handedly capturing a German spy in a shell hole. He was formally promoted to the rank of Sergeant and awarded the Purple Heart.
