Mans Best Friend

[sapper756]

Lance Corporal Liam Tasker, 26, was laid to rest in Fife after dying on patrol in Afghanistan earlier this month.

An army dog handler killed in Afghanistan was hailed as a "hero" and "the best brother you could ask for" as hundreds of mourners gathered for his funeral on Tuesday.

 

Lance Corporal Liam Tasker, 26, of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, was shot dead on March 1 while on patrol with his springer spaniel Theo.

 

The sniffer dog, described as a "true friend" to the soldier, died hours later after suffering a seizure, with L/Cpl Tasker's family believing Theo died from a broken heart.
