Man's best friend mourns his death

The photo showing the bond between felled Navy SEAL Jon Tomlinson and his dog Hawkeye has captured the attention of the Web.
The soldier was one of 38 killed in Afghanistan on Aug. 6 when a rocket-propelled grenade took out a U.S. Chinook helicopter. He was mourned at a service in Rockford, Iowa, attended by 1,500 family members and friends, and Tomlinson's loyal canine companion.
The Labrador retriever was such an important part of Tomlinson's life that the San Diego resident called his dog "son."
When Tomlinson's friend Scott Nichols walked to the front of the room to give his eulogy, Hawkeye followed. As Nichols spoke, Hawkeye dropped to the ground at the foot of the casket and, according to observers, heaved a big sigh. The loyal pooch would not leave his owner's casket during the funeral.
The video clip of the mourning dog seen here has already received more than 113,000 views.
The heart-breaking photo above was taken by Tomlinson's cousin and posted on Facebook, where it quickly went viral. She wrote on her Facebook page, "To say that he was an amazing man doesn't do him justice. The loss of Jon to his family, military family, and friends is immeasurable."

@makingsnsux Dear makingsnsux is PROFANITY really necessary in order for you to express your ideas and communicate with others? Is your everyday speech peppered with PROFANITY, so much so, that you no longer consider it PROFANITY and use it indiscriminately? I consider it lazy speech, not cognitively searching for the most concise word to express yourself, instead you insert PROFANITY.
