Salute to these brave soldiers most never think of.
« on: August 02, 2012, 03:03:10 PM »
Many people remember a fallen soldier as a person in uniform.

Let us not forget, that somtimes it's the four legged buddy who just saved your life becuase he's a bomb-sniffing dog.





Nuff said.

Most dogs are far better people than the vast majority of humans you will encounter.

As the late great Will Rogers once said," If there are no dogs in Heaven, when I die, I want to go where the dogs are."
"I haven't seen Berlin yet, from the ground or the air, and I plan on doing both, BEFORE the war is over."

Admit it you like the little guys too. 
They call it "common sense", then why is it so uncommon?

It's amazing what service dogs do for people, not just military but also the civilian . My wife's
been using a service dog for the last 7 years and she would be lost without her, we recently found out
that she(the dog) may have cancer, it will be terrible for her(my wife) if this is found to be correct.
