Terrified by what he sees, the young man is only brought out of his catatonia by Thunder, a mangy but brave war dog. With the loyal canine's help, Bob is able to acclimate himself to the horrors of war. The soldier's newfound bravery places him in mortal danger, however, when his commander chooses him for a deadly mission across enemy lines. Bob is gripped with fear when he realizes that he will not have Thunder by his side. But the dedicated animal will prove that a dog is truly man's best friend, even when all hope is lost. His Master's Voice's leading man, George Hackathorne, played Sid Sawyer to Jack Pickford's Tom in Tom Sawyer (1917) and Huck and Tom (1918). He was personally picked for the role by Jack's sister Mary, who also cast him in her Amarilly of Clothesline Alley (1918). Hackathorne struggled to find work after the advent of sound, however; his last role would be as one of the many wounded soldiers in Gone With the Wind (1939). Thunder, billed as "The Marvel Dog," was one of many Rin-Tin-Tin imitators who popped up during the silent era. Starring George Hackathorne, Marjorie Daw, Thunder the Dog. Directed by Renaud Hoffman.
