Dogs of War Front Royal, Virginia 1942
Lackland Airforce Base, San Antonio, Texas, 1966 Photo supplied by Karen A George, in
tribute to her stepfather, US Marine Sgt. Byers was assigned as Prince's handler in August, 1967. Prince spent his first tour of duty in Vietnam working in the Cho Lai area guarding land-to-air missile sites, ammo dumps, and jet and helicopter airfields. Later Prince was assigned to handler Corporal McCafferty who wrote the following report, dated July 12, 1968, quoted from the journal of Sgt Byers... "When we again moved out, we has progressed no futher than 200 meters when we came under small enemy firearms. We held up and air strike were called in. These lasted for approximately 45 minutes. The platoon commander asked if Prince and I would lead a recon patrol into this area to check the enemy situation. We had moved out approximately 200 yards to our right front. I notified the patrol leader that NVA Soldiers were spotted running from the brush towards a building. We immediately took them under fire. We were notified by the radio to pull back. As we moved back, Prince again alerted to my left flank. An NVA jumped up from a bush about 20 feet away. Prince leapt for him just as he fired. The ememy round caught Prince in the chest, killed him instantly. He saved my life. I picked up Prince and carried him back to out lines. I requested a MedEvac chopper to take Prince out, but because of the intense fighting going on around us, none were available. I was order to bury Prince on the battlefield with all of his gear, then I forward with the rest of the company."
