How many military personnel know about this option?

So, should military families have pets or should the foster them?

Journalists interested in animals may want to take a look at these breaking news reports. Could make for some interesting commentary. The American Humane Association has helped animal war vicitims and veteran for ages. Also, there a bunch of war animal memorials and organizations out there.

Here is an interesting piece on animal rescue in Lebanon. In wartime there are always animal victims. Check out these additonal sites about BETA and the ethical treatment of animals in Beirut.
