Lieutenant Colonel Richard A. Dixon,
USA (ret.) is the author of My Heroes Have Always Been Dogs. According to the
book description, “For those who love dogs, this story will draw a tear. It will also make them proud to love their
dogs. These are the stories of five dogs that were extraordinary. Two of them accomplished heroic deeds in Vietnam and died
for a country they never knew. The others were more than merely pets. They loved their human companions with a love that transcended
ordinary human love, that in most cases is only a love in terms of what one receives in return for love given. These dogs
loved their human companions with a perfect love, in the Freudian sense, for they asked nothing in return than that their
human companions love them and cherish them for what they were—the dogs. These, then are their stories, the stories
of my heroes, the dogs.
