This is a story that I heard about while I was in Iraq and totally forgot about until I found this article. I remember hearing some guys talking about a sniper hiding a dog from our Sergeant Major, but I didn't know that they got the dog home. I just wanted to share this because it is a really cool story and I knew Corporal Boskovitch.

What a beautiful story...thank you for sharing it with us. I think Cpl Boscovitch wanted to try and ease his mothers grief so I think from heaven he orchestrated getting Beans home to her for support and comfort.
Hey, if your game, aaron and I, possibly nathan are looking at going to see Jarhead. If you want to go then give me a call 631 2216.
thats a cool story, my dad mentioned something about it to me. He knows someone who was a friend of the family.
WOW I have heard that story and I think that very very nice story. I got a little emotional when I was reading it. There should be more stories like that!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cpl McCauley,
I have followed your blog through out this experience. This story goes to the heart of everything I have read here.
But, just like everthing else I read it here first. So, it has been copied and sent out to my mailing list (on Veterans Day no less). I am sure it will circle the globe soon, good stories always do.
Thank you for the stories from the front. Thank you for the service to your country.
James
