Compare Craig & Fred by Craig Grossi, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

In 2010, Sergeant Craig Grossi was doing intelligence work for Marine RECON, the most elite fighters in the Corps, in a remote part of Afghanistan. While on patrol, he spotted a young dog “with a big goofy head and little legs" who didn’t seem vicious or run in a pack like most strays they’d encountered. After eating a piece of beef jerky Craig offered—against military regulations—the dog began to follow him. “Looks like you made a friend," another Marine yelled. Grossi heard, “Looks like a ‘Fred.’" The name stuck, and a life-changing friendship was forged. Months later, when Craig returned to the U. S., it was Fred’s turn to save the wounded Marine from Post-Traumatic Stress. Today, Craig and Fred are touching lives nationwide, from a swampy campground in a Louisiana State Park to the streets of Portland, Oregon, and everywhere in between. | Craig & Fred by Craig Grossi, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
