The War

.

We have been watching Ken Burns' The War on tv. My Human's father served in the army during World War II. He began the War in Alaska helping to build the Alcan Highway. Later he served in Europe as a medic. My Human does not know much about his service, but she does know that he was a medic at the Battle of the Bulge. Watching The War on tv has given her a new respect and appreciation for her father as well as all the troops and other Americans during this period of the human history.

WOW! Great pictures, Tubey! You must be really proud of your grandfather! We like the second picture best -- where he's standing in SNOW! Maybe he's who you get your love of snow from!
We salute your grandfather - and all who served AND serve our nation in uniform! HOOAH!
Tail wags,

HI Turbo! Here are your questions!!

1. If you could have a human job, what would you do?

2. What was your greatest tale of destruction?

3. What is your most favorite treat of all times!

4. If you weren't a husky is there any other breed you'd like to be?

5. If you had to spend 24 hours with any dog with blog member, who would it be?!
