SAN DIEGO — A San Diego-based Marine major was reunited yesterday with one of his closest war buddies — a 2-year-old dog named Nubs.
Nubs greeted Maj. Brian Dennis at Miramar Marine Corps Air Station when the fighter pilot returned from Iraq. It was the first time the two were together since Maj. Dennis' family and close friends a month ago helped raise $3,500 to fly the dog to San Diego. Nubs wasn't allowed to stay on base in Iraq.
Maj. Dennis, 36, of St. Pete Beach, Fla., had spotted the mongrel dog in Anbar province and later nursed the animal back to health after finding him stabbed with a screwdriver. He named the dog Nubs after learning someone cut its ears off believing it would make the dog more aggressive and alert.
