Vietnam war dogs

BTW, in response to the blanket comment that "Soldiers don't care", BULL!

Blanket statements about a group of people who are a cross section of American society are inaccurate at best. Most soldiers care very much about what happens to family members, and that includes any pets they may have.

In some cases, however, they run out of help. Shelters and kennels don't want to provide long term care (1yr +/-) for an animal, sometimes families aren't in any position to help out, and that leaves a soldier with damned few options when it comes to taking care of pets while they are deployed.

I'd be interested in where you came across this info to begin with, as there are few if any permanent party personnel deploying out of FT McCoy, only reservists and national guard troops who are not allowed to have pets while they are in pre-deployment training.

Yeah, soldiers don't care
Obviously you are very unaware. View that documentary on the war dogs and look at that site I posted. "Soldiers that don't care" don't break down in tears over a dog they couldn't bring back home with them. Before making statements like that, do some research.
