Iraq War Veteran From LI Surprised With Service Dog At Giants Game

NEW JERSEY (CBSNewYork) — Marine Corps Veteran Frank Giarmida, of Commack, made a new best friend on Sunday.

Giarmida was surprised with Scarlet, a 7-month-old German shepherd puppy, on the field of MetLife Stadium during the Giants game. The gesture was one of gratitude for Giarmida’s service in the Iraq War, CBS2’s Hazel Sanchez reported.

“I see the dog come out and I’m looking at the screen, and I see a dog and I’m looking around and I didn’t even hear what the commentator said anymore,” Giarmida said.

This is going to be my best friend,” Giarmida said.
