  Please take the following administrative action under advisement and
forward
you suggestions to Head Quarters here at Camp Woodburn at your
convenience.
For the last several months a K9 transfer has been assigned here as
guard to the Camp Woodburn Motor Pool.
  This K9, Sgt. FUBAR, came here for corrective training for an AWOL
problem from another assignment.
  Sgt. FUBAR's tour of duty here has been outstanding until a resent
event where
Sgt. FUBAR was recruited by a deliciously smelling WAC K9 for special
service.
This service included, among other things, reckoning a Bovine Battalion
on a
nearby ridge.
  Unbeknownst to Sgt. FUBAR this was enemy held territory and he was
involved with an ambushed by the Cow Commander of the Bovine Battalion.
  Two members of Sgt. FUBAR's special squad were KIA and two more were
WIA, one of which was Sgt. FUBAR. The WAC K9 escaped unharmed to carry
on the bloodline of her German heritage.
  Sgt. FUBAR sustained a load of bird shot to the head and neck area.
  Sgt. FUBAR made his way back to the field aid station were he was
evacuated to
a more suitable medical facility.
  Here in lies the problem, should Sgt. FUBAR be awarded for his service

and wounds, or court marshaled for dereliction of duty.
  His fate is in your hands but before you decide here is a little
information to
help weight your decision.
  Sgt. FUBAR is a yellow lab recruited from the dog orphanage.
  Like any good lab he is loyal to a fault and his brown eyes are
capable of
melting your heart.
To date this event has cost Sgt. FUBAR his pride to say the least. The
front half
of his body has been shaved for treatment and the 6" scab on the top of
his head
is not he least bit attractive. He will confined to the cage in the mess
hall until
the weather warms up or his hair grows back, whichever comes first.
Please let your conscious be your guide.
Respectfully Submitted
Pfc. Tom Woodburn
PFCIC Camp Woodburn Motor Pool
