They take on military assignments impossible for humans, and even robots, to perform. They are rewarded with fresh food, protection from predators and loving human contact. These unheralded, unknown, and often misunderstood marine mammals save countless lives during their underwater missions.

The documentary is available throughout July via podcast and video on demand at www.PentagonChannel.mil.
