The 1st Military Working Dog Regiment has been recognised for its support to operations in Afghanistan at The National Service Dog Bravery and Achievement Awards 2016.
The awards recognise bravery, outstanding achievement and dedication to duty made by uniformed working dog teams and individuals. The six-strong team all received an individual hand-crafted leather lead with a brass inlay of their achievements, an engraved silver plaque and a framed citation.
Major Jack Kemp, second-in-command of 1st Military Working Dog Regiment, said: “It is a great honour to accept this award on behalf of the Regiment. Every single member of the Regiment should be proud of the contribution they made whilst deployed in Afghanistan and to have that work recognised with this national award is indeed an honour.”
