Loyalty

On August 6, 2011 - a weekend, most of us woke up to the news that a large helicopter came under fire and crashed in Afghanistan and crashed, killing all 38 occupants of the aircraft. This included 8 Afghan soldiers and 30 US military personnel, including a g special forces from the same unit as the SEAL team that made its assault and captured the Abbottabad compound eventually killing Osama Bin Laden.

Here's a snippet of a report on one of the service of one of the fallen soldiers.


"Petty Officer Jon T. Tumilson was laid to rest Friday in Rockford, Iowa, where an estimated 1,500 mourners came to pay respects for the fallen Navy SEAL, including his dog Hawkeye. In fact, Hakeye’s loyalty to his owner at the funeral was visible, creating a heart-wrenching image as he laid down by the casket of his owner during the entire service."*
