SAN DIEGO (AP) - A Marine major from St. Pete Beach has beenreunited with one of his closest war buddies - a 2-year-old dog
named Nubs.
Nubs greeted Major Brian Dennis on Saturday when the fighter
pilot returned to Miramar Marine Corps Air Station from Iraq.
The 36-year-old spotted the mongrel dog while on patrol in Anbar
province and later nursed the animal back to health after finding
him stabbed with a screwdriver.
But Nubs wasn't allowed to stay on base with him, so Dennis'
family and close friends helped raise $3,500 to fly the dog to San
Diego about a month ago.
Saturday morning was the first time the two had met since then.
