A duty of the Marine sentries was the inspection of boarding pas- sengers for animals and other pets could not be allowed aboard. One small puppy, however, proved too much for the sympathetic heart of one Marine sentry, and was allowed aboard — to stay. She grew up as Dinah , the pride of the Commanding officer, and unofficial ship ' s mas- cot. Her watch on the bridge wing amazed and sometimes intimidated the Army passengers aboard. Dinah enjoyed the distinction of being the only dog to be ordered to the bridge via the ship ' s public address system. As ordered, she proudly reported to the bridge bearing a note; Captain, I have inspected the fo ' c ' sle . For more than a year she never strayed from the ship, but the afternoon prior to her scheduled departure with the Commanding officer, Dinah jumped ship, and for three days explored the Norfolk Navy Yard, and Portsmouth, Virginia. When found she was returned to the ship for further transfer to civilian life. To insure the maximum order and best handling of the thousands of passengers, Marine sentries and guards patrolled ship. The peculiar con- ditions which arise on a troopship led to many incidents not covered by the accepted Marine Instructions to Sentries . On one voyage, the ef- ficient A Deck sentry was seen helping a young female passenger hang up her washing, a service above and beyond the call of duty. ' m ' r
