"They also serve"
A British Army dog who found a hidden cache of arms, explosives and bomb-making equipment during the recent conflict in Iraq, has been awarded the Dickin Medal (the animal equivalent of the Victoria Cross) at a special ceremony in London today.
Buster, a five-year-old Springer Spaniel, is believed to have saved the lives of countless civilians and military personnel by finding the guns, grenades and ammunition hidden behind a false wall during a search of Safwan town in Southern Iraq.
