Retired Marine Staff Sgt. Alex Schnell said he knew that he had a very unique animal on his hands the very first time he saw the Belgian Malinois, Bass.
"He's got very piercing predator eyes," he continued, "I could just tell with that look -- this is a pretty special canine and I was very happy to get the chance to be assigned with him." Bream told the stories of the men and women of the U.S. military and the dogs that are often leading the way.
"You have one canine, one handler that can track, is explosive detection capable and patrol capable," said Schnell, explaining the Bass could sniff out weapons as well as find and take down bad guys if needed.During their time together, serving more than six years in Marine Corps special operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia, Bass would do all of that and more.
"We were in southern Afghanistan and we're going in to capture or kill high-value individuals at this specific location. We land, everything's normal, everything's very quiet," he recalled.
