In 2004 Deb and Dan Dunham lost their son Jason to an insurgent’s grenade in Iraq. Now the Scio, N.Y., couple is healing — and being healed by — another wounded Marine: Gunner, a bomb-sniffing dog traumatized by war. In this touching interview with the Wall Street Journal, the Dunhams discuss life with Gunner, and if you’re anything like this blogger, you’ll be deeply moved. One could not wish for a better ending.
