What they find during the US-led attack on the 'most dangerous city on Earth', however, is not an insurgent bent on revenge, but a tiny puppy left behind when most of the city's population fled before the bombing. Despite military law that forbids the keeping of pets, the Marines de-flea the pup with kerosene, de-worm him with chewing tobacco, and fill him up on Meals Ready to Eat. Thus begins the dramatic rescue attempt of a dog named Lava and Lava's rescue of at least one Marine, Lieutenant Colonel Jay Kopelman, from the emotional ravages of war.
From hardened Marines to wartime journalists to endangered Iraqi citizens, From Baghdad, With Love tells an unforgettable story of an unlikely band of heroes who learn unexpected lessons about life, death, and war from a mangy flea-ridden refugee.
Jay Kopelman was a lieutenant colonel in the US Marine Corps, stationed at Camp Pendleton in La Jolla, CA. He began his military career in 1986, and transferred to the Marine Corps in 1991. In September, 2004, he deployed to Iraq for six months, and in November, he and his battalion entered Fallujah and fought for the city.
Jay Kopelman's website can be found at www.jaykopelman.com
Melinda Roth is a journalist and is the author of The Man Who Talks to Dogs.
