Dogs
Jonah Goldberg once argued for the superiority of dogs over cats by pointing out that no one ever has a funeral for a cat killed in the line of duty. CNN has a story about a dog who was given early retirement after two tours of duty in Iraq -- and after losing his handler to a mortar attack. Lex was injured in the line of duty and will now take early retirement in Mississippi.
