Nowzad hasn't added a story.
Charlie's Soldier Savior says:
This is Charlie, a tough devil-pup from the northern mountains of Afghanistan. I found him cowering outside my command post on Christmas Eve. I made a quick bed from my jacket and then took him inside. After sharing a Christmas StarKist tuna dinner together, he fell asleep on my jacket. Over the next few days, I nursed Charlie back to health. As he regained his strength, he began to follow me around everywhere I went. Needless to say, I grew rather attached to Charlie. In fact, I began referring to him as my new executive officer.
As much as I love the company of my new XO, I arranged to have him picked up and vaccinated. This part of Afghanistan is rife with canine disease, and most puppies do not survive the winter. He is currently under the care of the wonderful people at the Nowzad clinic in Kabul. He will stay there until he is up to date on his vaccinations.
All of my Marines and I miss our little devil-pup, but we know it is in his best interest. When the time comes for us to leave Afghanistan, we do not intend to leave him behind. The process is costly, but if enough people are willing to help, I can give Charlie a new home in the United States. With your help, we can save Charlie from this war.
Semper Fidelis,
Capt Ryan
