Help LCplHarmon get his Dog

Donation protected
My Little Brother joined the USMC straight from High School, at 17 he stood on those yellow footprints at Parris Island.  He was living his dream from as far back as I can remember.  He went as a tanker, after tank school he went to Camp Lejuene.

At 19 he started training as a dog handler knowing he would soon be deployed to Afganistan.  When he showed up to training the dogs stood on one side and the Marines stood at the other so they could be assigned their dog. When Rebel (his dog) saw my brother he got up and when and sat by my brother, Rebel chose his own human.

They trained constantly, Rebel was my brothers responsiblity 100%.  April 2011 my family and I saw my brother and his buddies off the Afghanistan. That was by far the hardest day of my life, sending my brother off to war.

This was my brother's first deployment but it was Rebel's 3rd or 4th. While over there it was their job not to just protect each other but to protect ever service man they patrolled with. They ate, drank, slept together. If anything happened to Rebel my bother had to take care of him. They spent 8 months in a war zone together, Rebel comforted my brother through some of the scariest things in his life.  This is my brothers chance to take care of him for life.

Rebel is at the vet because he needs surgery for an infected tumor that needs to be removed.  His current owner can not afford to pay due to her son being very ill and tons of medical expenses. Anything that is raised over what we need for Rebel will be donated to her for her Son's Medical bills.

I know having Rebel back in my brother's life will make his life easier as he still has his struggles from being deployed. Any little bit will help.

Thanks
