A War Dog Mystery, (Solved) |
 | | This grave marker of a WWII War Dog (Hambone Jr.) is near Simon's parents home in Alresford, Winchester, Hants, England along side a famous River walk called "The Dean." This town was used for the D-Day invasion. |
 | | Hambone was an infantry regiment's canine mascot, and his duty was to run alongside the soldiers, provide entertainment and keep their thoughts away from battle and pain and death. |
 | | Hambone's grave, alongside a weathered path, was just one example of how America is remembered in a country that was once bombed nightly. |
