Ratchet Arrives In America

Ratchet Arrives In America

Initially Ratchet flew on a charter flight to Kuwait out of Iraq, then flew commercial from Kuwait to Amsterdam and then on to Washington. Northwest Airlines generously covered the costs of his last two flights. Even with all the travelling, Ratchet is in good spirits wagging his tail and wanting to play. Next stop will be Minneapolis, where Army Spc. Gwen Beberg's parents will pick him up.

Mission accomplished for Private Ratchet! In the coming months, let's try to remember other soldiers who have formed bonds with dogs in Iraq, and support Baghdad Pups.
