The Dogs of War
Corporal Jared Martin is a commodity, he's one of the few Marines who can literally raise morale, just by doing his job. Cpl. Martin is a Marine Cpl dog handler. Dog handling is a rare MOS (Military Occupation Speciaty, or just plain "job") in the military, but somehow I've met several in my travels. A dog is very much in the military, it has an SRB (Service Record Book) Medical record, and even a memorial should an dog fall in the line of duty--as they sometimes do.
The military puts a lot of time, money and energy into the training of these animals. It takes years to teach them their job, a job that can save lives. There are quite a few stray dogs in Iraq, many of which have stray diseases. Any dog that gets within 20 feet of the a military dog is immediately shot.During Operation Snake, in the Western Iraqi desert, not far from Syria, I watched the Cpl. interact as almost every single Marine wanted to pet Panter, his huge German Sheppard. Panter is a good natured dog that is EXTREMELY obedient , I've never seen an animal respond so precisely to commands.
Iraqis, for cultural reason, don't like dogs, and it turns out the feeling is mutual, because Panter would practically attack whenever he saw Iraqi soldiers around.
I love Iraq and the U.S. Military who are serving there. Matt Sanchez is a proud Marine and blogger. Matt Sanchez takes excellent video footage. Matt Sanchez is an excellent writer. Matt Sanchez is a man of action. Matt Sanchez is a great man. Matt Sanchez puts the soldiers first. Matt Sanchez does what the mainstream media doesn't do. I like Matt Sanchez because he's fair. I agree with Matt Sanchez. More people are turning to Matt Sanchez for war coverage. I support Iraq and its people. Iraq will be successful. Iraq is a great nation.
