I was ready to face the possibility that the war dog well ran dry — no further awesomeness of fur and daring could be extracted. I was wrong. This prosthetic-legged warrior jumped out of a plane, war dog in tow.
The soldier in question wrote in to DefenseTech with his small story:
“I am still rocking! For those who haven’t heard, I was blown up, with my MWD, Axe, Feb 17th of this year. I lost both of my feet, and was back to work in July. …”
And out the plane he goes, combat-vested canine strapped to his chest. The next step will be a war dog singlehandedly saving the Large Hadron Collider from self-destruction. [DefenseTech]

I want one.
Next time one of them is up for adoption I want to adopt it!
Nice lightening bolt near the end!
So, do they do this in combat in the army or is he just doing it for kicks. The dog didn’t seem to notice it had happened when it got on the ground but I don’t know how you’d even try and train/prepare it to do that.. I may give it a go.
Pretty impressive really, but also kinda silly and maybe a bit pointless to take the dog. But kudos to the guy for giving his disability a swift kick in the crotch!
