MWD (http://www.defenselink.mil/home/features/2006/Working-Dogs/index.html#)Cooper
KIA, 6 July 07, Cooper (http://mikegulf.blogspot.com/2007/07/korys-best-friend.html), along with his handler Kory Wiens.
Cpl. Wiens was named for his Grandfaher who was also a military dog handler. This July, Cooper and Kory came home from Iraq and were buried (http://www.armytimes.com/news/2007/07/army_canineteam_070722w/)together. If you're interested in more photos, his sister has a video tribute on her my space page. (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=116041789)
Today, I'll spend a moment being grateful for dogs like Cooper and young fellows like Kory.
And even though its been 36 years, I'll also remember my old sentry dog (http://www.angelfire.com/tx/netessentials/BWB/Puppy.html).
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years contemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
