Taking Home Eli
Brady Rusk, 12, hugs Eli, a bomb-sniffing military working dog, during a retirement and adoption ceremony Feb. 3, 2011, at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas. The Labrador retriever was assigned to Brady's older brother, Marine Pfc. Colton Rusk who was killed Dec. 5 in Afghanistan by Taliban sniper fire. Department of Defense officials granted the Rusk family permission to adopt Eli following his “retirement from the U.S. Marine Corps.” (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Bennie J. Davis III)
