$6,000 raised to fly two Afghanistan war zone dogs to the U.S.

Two stray dogs in Afghanistan that found comfort and companionship with a company of U.S. Army soldiers at a remote firebase are poised to leave the war zone behind. As the troops get set to return home, their spouses have raised nearly $6,000 to fly the dogs to the United States.

Thanks to the donations that flowed in following a Facebook posting, OP1 and Smiley are expected to find new homes with the families of soldiers at Fort Campbell, Ky.
