Guest Post: National K-9 Veterans Day (From Paula Cas)

National K9 Veterans Day, March 13, is a day set aside to honor commemorate the service and sacrifices of American military and working dogs throughout history.

It was on March 13, 1942, that the Army began training for its new War Dog Program, also known as the “K-9 Corps,” according to American Humane, marking the first time that dogs were https://www.military.com/officially a part of the U.S. Armed Forces.

The rest, as they say, is history. Officially a part of the service of not, the dogs of war span centuries and include such heroes as Sgt. Stubby, the original war dog, Chips, the most decorated dog in World War II and Lex, who retired with his fallen owners family and Cairo, the Navy SEAL working dog on the bin Laden raid.

Today’s military dogs are valued as important members of their military units and even have their own retirement ceremonies, awards and medals, and memorial services.

Character Introduction / Serenity Clan0

Sylum Inspiration: Richard Beauregard

Serenity: Member

 

Richard Beauregard comes from a long line of Beauregards, that date back to the famous Confederate General. The family has always been based in New Orleans, and because of this he’s known about Vampires most of his life.

Richard ran the family Shrimp Business. But after Hurricane Katrina, then the oil spill, he was losing money fast. He invested in a crab boat, and headed up to Bering Sea. He knew Nico had contacted Mal to let him knw about the rookie Captain.

Rookie Captain was right.

Richard ended up in a dangerous situation and if it wasn’t for Liefr he wouldn’t have made it out of it alive. He was so thankful the other Captain was everything all the rumors had said and should up to pull his crew off the ice flow.
