When J. Robert Conroy's commanding officer found out that Stubby was onboard, the dog gave him a salute. So the officer let Stubby stay on board. Stubby soon was used to the noise of bombs and rifles.
Stubby's first injury was from a gas exposure. The injury made Stubby sensitive to any time of gas . When J. Roberts Conroy division was bombed by a gas launch Stubby sensed the gas and woke up all the soldiers to sound the gas alarm. A German spy was mapping a layout of the French base, Stubby saw the spy, and was biting his leg untill American Soldiers came. For finding the spy Stubby got a field promotion of sergeant and is the first dog to get a field promotion. Stubby was injured by a grenade blast and had loads of shrapnel on his chest and leg. By the end of World War 1 Stubby fought in 17 battles and but eventually died in 1926. The END.
