This is quite a story. A soldier stationed in Iraq started feeding a stray and her puppy, built them a doghouse, and planned to have them shipped home with him when he was sent stateside. With 6 months left to his tour, he died on Christmas day. This is the story of how his family brought home the dogs he loved.

I got this in an email yesterday, refreshing to see after how many animals have to be given up when soldiers are shipped out

It heartbreaking, and heartwarming, at the same time. I'm sure those dogs will bring some solace to the family.
