It is our philosophy not to post on social media while we are deployed or even afterwards. Out of respect for those we serve. There are times however when media is a good thing. Sharing the healing our dogs can bring. Today (pardon the pun), for no other reason than because..., we remember Clarence.

The 10-year-old Saint Bernard even got a kiss from President Joe Biden.
