Pictured above, with our beloved Trever, is the Badge of Military Merit, 

"The Purple Heart established by General George Washington at Newburgh, August 7, 1792,

during the war of the American Revolution."  On February 22, 1932,

the Purple Heart medal was revived by President Hoover.

"The Purple Heart is authorized to be awarded to persons who, while serving in the army

of the United States, perform any singularly Meritorious act of extraordinary fidelity or essential service.

A wound received in action may be construed as resulting in such an act."  

This dog is most important to us, in the light that he was named

in the thoughts and memory of our men and women

sacrificing their lives and hearts for us every day. God Be With Them Always.
