When his assignment was completed, Chief Petty Officer Watkins not only shared his meal with the canines, but he also promised to return for them when his work was complete. As a result, the soldier was freed from service and reached out to SPCA International and Operation Baghdad Pups for further assistance when he returned home.
After 4-months of difficulties with the procedure and operations, Captain Watkins was able to get the three dogs on a plane to San Diego. He was ecstatic to be reunited with the dogs and give them a good home, but he had a nudge worry that they wouldn’t recognize him anymore.
