Great story, and all those fabulous pictures of teeny kittens too!

The last photo with Keykey in her new home in Michigan - do you think that man keeps a car in his sitting room, or do people in Michigan normally have TVs in their garage??

I LOVED this and some of the kitties are in the USA already!! Wow!

LOL! I'm guessing that the man spends a lot of time in his garage! Whether it's because he's working on the car and other projects, or whether that's his "man cave," I couldn't say.

My guess is that he has his workshop in the garage. And the TV is there for watching the Tigers play

Those kittens/cats are adorable. I wonder if Afghanistan has only orange cats? Maybe because they blend into the background better.

Heh! If I had THAT muscle car in my garage I'd be spending much time in there. Yeah, that has got to be the 'Man Cave'.

My thumbs up to the Marines for the softness of their hearts. True, it is very lonely 'over there'. Was in my time, and trust me, it don't get no better from generation to generation.

In my time it was two little pups the Vietnamese were going to sell for food. My buddy and I raised them and when it was our time to rotate we turned them over to a Captain on his way home with a discharge in his hand. He carried them to St Louis to his wife and family.

Bless you for rescuing those puppies! I hope they lived long and happy lives with the Captain and his family.

That has to be the best post I've seen in a very long time! In a part of the world where the positives are few and far between, it's great to know our Marines have found the love and companionship only a kitty can give.

God protect these extraordinary gentlemen and bring them home soon!

I think we all knew this was going on, our military men and women arent only dog people after all. It is great to see the pics and to know the kittehs are going home with our brave men and women of uniform.

I believe that our soldiers have always had a fond spot in their hearts for Cats and Dogs who have been displaced by the war.

I remember well the story of Abraham Lincoln as he scooped three homeless Cats into his stove pipe hat on the fields of Gettsyburg.
Well done men, mission accomplished
