Purple Heart returned to family in ceremony by dog who dug it up

Dogs are barred from the hallowed resting place for U.S. military veterans and heroes that is the Fort Logan National Cemetery in Lakewood. But on Sunday, Smuckers, a mixed-breed golden retriever/labrador, was given special dispensation so she could participate in a special ceremony to return a Purple Heart medal to the family of Korean War hero Richmond L. Litman.
