Have a Tissue Handy ....





This has to be one of the most powerful, saddest images I've ever seen ...

Petty Officer Jon Thomas Tumilson was one of the service members who lost their lives when the Chinook helicopter was shot down in Afghanistan on Aug. 6. Tumilson was a SEAL.

Petty Officer Tumilson's funeral was this past Friday. From The Des Moines Register:

"Family members followed Tumilson's ribbon winning Labrador retriever, Hawkeye, into the service. Hawkeye later accompanied his new owner, Tumilson's close friend, to the stage, where the Lab dutifully dropped to the floor to listen."



I'm having a hard time writing this ...
