On Saturday, 8 February 2014, the PGR has been invited to participate in the DAWGS ON HAWGS War Dog Memorial and to honor USMC Cpl Max W. Donahue - the first MWD Handler killed in action in Afghanistan in 2010.
The Dawgs Project launches each year with events of a War Dog Memorial to all United States Military Working Dog Handlers of all generations.
The PGR will form a flag line at the Marine Corps Memorial Gardens, MCB, Camp Pendleton honoring the dedication of the Dawgs Of War Memorial Monument.
