4-6America's Animal Soldiers series.
This series gives an overview of the U.S. military's modern-day use of animals to conduct missions on both land and sea. The brief text is accompanied by captioned photographs and dog-tag-shaped text boxes, which breaks the information into manageable bits. However, the emphasis on simplicity doesn't allow for in-depth discussions on any one topic. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these America's Animal Soldiers titles: Dolphins in the Navy, Horses, Donkeys, and Mules in the Marines, Sea Lions in the Navy, and War Dogs.
