Azza
“Azza, like many Belgian Malinois stationed in Afghanistan, was a military working dog trained to sniff out IEDs in areas of operation. She saved the lives of her handler, Air Force Tech. Sgt. Leonard Anderson, and his comrades twice in one day.
“The first time, Azza’s behavior changed while Anderson and his team were out on an ops, signaling that there was an IED nearby. Anderson called in the bomb technicians who learned there was a bomb not more than a step away.
Later on their patrol, the squad was alerted to the sound of a motorcycle–likely an ambush scout. Azza once again changed her behavior and crossed the road looking for the bomb. If Azza hadn’t alerted Anderson to the presence of the bomb, the Tech. Sergeant would have been a few more feet forward, likely causing his ultimate death.” – Source: COED.com
