IMAGEJohn Childs (left) and Huie Lamb with 'Brussels' the dog. Brussels was owned by Huie's friend, Tory Eggleston, who brought him back from leave in his pocket. He was just a 'sprout', so they called him 'Brussels'. When Troy was killed, Huie looked after Brussels, who became a much-loved member of the 82nd Fighter Squadron. Image courtesy of Huie Lamb.
