From Baghdad, Wih Love - A Marine, the War, and a Dog Names Lava. When Lieutenant Colonel Jay Kopelman walks down the hallway of a compound housing U.S. Marines in Fallujah, Iraq, he's startled by a noise. He shouts and raises his gun, his nerves still on edge from having just patrolled the dangerous streets of a city in the grip of violence. His adversary- A five-week-old stray puppy. There's fear in his eyes despite the bravado, writes Kopelman in FROM BAGHDAD, WITH LOVE. He's only a puppy, too young to know how to mask it, so I can see how bravery and terror trap him on all sides while testosterone and adrenaline compete in the meantime for every ounce of his attention. Recognize it right away.
