U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Jason J.

Thank you Jason and Streek for your work in Helmand Province. We love this great photo.

(BTW, love the name Avalanche, how appropriate for a band from the 10th Mountain Division.)

What a great day today. Thanks to the technology of Facebook, we were able to learn that our care packages arrived in a tiny outpost in Afghanistan today. Made me smile to think that two hard working dogs will have new toys and treats today and that two hard working handlers will know they’ve been remembered. Love you guys.

Allen will soon be headed home to his new “after-deployment” life, cheered on by a younger and equally cool MWD, Zorby.

Don’t you just love these photos? Thanks to the handlers for sharing super shots of these two amazing working dogs.

We have many more photos to share. Be sure to email us and let us know if you’d like to sign up for a free copy of our online newsletter. Just email us at info@mwdtsa.org.

Enjoy the photos. Thanks to all of our friends at Fort Benning and all of the folks attending. What an awesome day. We did miss those handlers who are currently deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan, along with one who is in pre-deployment mode. AND, always miss, Von Loh, who will remain part of my Fort Benning memories, even if he is stationed elsewhere in the world :)
