"Within days, Scout was on the tarmac at Dulles International Airport, where he was met by Smathers, dressed in desert camouflage so the dog would recognize him. Scout scampered out of his cage and went straight to Smathers, resting at his feet."

Thanks, Calpernia, for the ping to the story!

There are many of these happy endings, the dog "OPSEC" included as mentioned in a prior post and more photos of Scout.
