True Friendship

Megan Leavey by Gabriela Cowperthwaite, was about a Corporal in the Marine Corps.  Her name was Megan.  She was a sort of troubled person who was trying to escape her current life at home by joining the Marines.  Her career started off tough but when she got assigned to help out with the dog trainers, she had found her calling.  She ended up training an aggressive dog and grew close together.  They worked together to sniff out weapons and IEDs overseas.  When she got out of the Marines she wanted to adopt him but Rex ended up going on another deployment without her.  She tried desperately to find out about him and adopt him.  In the she ends up getting him and spending the rest of her time with him until he passes.  I think this was movie was about friendship and finding a calling in life.  Megan didn't really have anything going for her before she found Rex and was committed to training him.  They both saved each other in my opinion.

I really enjoyed this film because its an inspiring true story.  The work that Megan had to put in before she could even be allowed to train a dog was motivation enough.  Then once she gets Rex, you get to see them bond throughout the entire movie and that was really something to see.  Not only does the movie had a lot of emotion, but it has a few intense scenes of action where they are in action and you get to really see what they went through.

My personal interests of me liking dogs or myself being in the military may have biased my view before I saw the movie.  I think that anyone who would see this movie though could relate to it on some level and feel for what they went through. 

Overall I think it was a great movie.  If you like military movies, dogs, or friendships, you should watch this movie because it combines all three.  Definitely opened my eyes a little bit to what they specifically have to do also.
