Dog helps a Marine see himself UNION-TRIBUNE June 26, 2008 When Marine Lt. Col.

The 5-week-old puppy, “Lava,” was rescued from an empty 50-gallon oil drum during a standoff with enemy snipers. Just as the dog gave comfort to the U.S. troops who fed and sheltered him in Fallujah, he gave Kopelman

FORT BRAGG, N.C. (AP) — When Capt. Ivan Castro joined the Army, he set goals: to jump out of planes, kick in doors and lead soldiers into combat. He achieved them all.
