Check out the backpack.

Thank God that our boys are able to find puppies and dogs over there that they can help but that give them the love and devotion that they need in that hell hole.

I'll see what I can find out.

I've seen a documentary on the soldiers saving dogs and sending them home to America. It is a heartwarming, and the dogs are so happy to have someone love them. At one of the camps a soldier took to one particular dog who had his ears cut off and been stabbed. He nursed it back to health, then the camp had to pack up and move on to a destination 70 miles away, but had to leave behind the dog. Two or three days later the dog showed up at the new camp. He walked 70 miles through wild dog territory, where he got mauled and beat up badly, paws were raw from walking on hot sand, no food, no water, but managed to make it to the new camp, bleeding and in need of TLC. He did make it.

Poor pup. I hope the soldier takes him home.
