Let's take a walk down another path momentarily. I feel the following information relates directly to our discussion concerning Union dead buried in Lee's backyard.
As I'm sure you are aware, there exists a flag, color black that is titled 'MIA' referring to Vietnam veterans who are considered missing in action. When one looks deeper into the issue, one finds that not only were soldiers left behind, but also thousands upon thousands of service dogs were also LEFT BEHIND. The United States government had the necessary resources to bring our boys home, but they chose not to. Seems much of the problem began with Nixon and Kissinger.
Please take the time to carefully read and consider the following article:
POWS LEFT BEHIND IN INDOCHINA
A story from National Geographic about the service dogs left behind:
