So for those that don't check Yahoo often or at all, here is a reason why you should. Earlier today this was posted on Yahoo and I thought Id share it here for those who don't visit the site.
On August 6th, 2011 a terrible accident that occurred on Afghanistan that killed 38 soldiers when a rocket-propelled grenade took out a U.S. Chinook helicopter. The Mourning of Navy SEAL Jon Tomlinson was held at Rockford, Iowa attended by 1,500 family members and friends and the one that stole my heart. His loyal Canine Companion.
Tomlinson even considered his retriever an important part in his life that he considered the canine as his own "SON".
When one of Tomlinsons friend Scott Nichols walked up to give his condolences the canine Hawkeye followed. As Nichols spoke Hawkeye dropped to the ground at the foot of the casket and, according to observers, heaved a big sigh. Hawkeye would not leave Tomlinsons' casket during the funeral.
Here's the video that LITERALLY made my eyes water. So heartbreaking.
