(49,998 posts)Navy SEAL Jon Tumilson lay in a coffin, draped in an American flag, in front of a tearful audience mourning his death in Afghanistan. Soon an old friend appeared, and like a fellow soldier on a battlefield, his loyal dog refused to leave him behind.
Tumilsons Labrador retriever, Hawkeye, was photographed lying by Tumilsons casket in a heart-wrenching image taken at the funeral service in Tumilsons hometown of Rockford, Iowa, earlier this week.
