Sergeant Stubby (1916-1926) was a dog and the official mascot of the 102nd Infantry Regiment (United States) and was assigned to the 26th (Yankee) Division in World War I. He served for 18 months and participated in 17 battles on the Western Front. He saved his regiment from surprise mustard gas attacks, found and comforted the wounded, and allegedly once caught a German soldier by the seat of his pants, holding him there until American soldiers found him. His actions were well-documented in contemporary American newspapers.
Stubby has been called the most decorated war dog of WWI, and the only dog to be nominated for rank and then promoted to sergeant through combat. Stubby's remains are in the Smithsonian Institution.

In a significant ceremony at the Combat Air Command No.5 -CACOM-5, of the Colombian Air Force the farewell Ceremony of Otto Thunder, a canine of the Belgian Shepherd Mallinois breed, who served in the Colombian Air Force, for 10 years contributed significantly to the national security.
Otto was trained in the specialty of explosives at the School of Training of Military Canines of the Colombian Air Force, where he learned registration techniques from a distance, sharpened his sense of smell and was trained in detecting this material.
Since 2011, he was assigned to provide his services at CACOM-5, where he worked in his specialty, carrying out 3,800 airport security operations, also working jointly with the National Army and coordinated with the National Police.
This canine, like other brave dogs around the planet, risk their lives daily as part of their work, therefore, a tricolor medal was imposed on him, extolling his service and important support for the security of the country.
The canine guides and members of the Air Base Security and Defense specialty No. 55, thanked their faithful companion, who after ten years of service, the country retires to rest and send him to a family that will adopt him in the municipality of Rionegro, where he will spend the rest of his days.

Specialist Andrew Brown and his MWD Rocky had been partners for two years when they were searching a compound in Afghanistan in December 2015, and both were injured by shrapnel from an improvised explosive device. After the explosion, they were flown together to Kandahar, Afghanistan, where Brown and Rocky were awarded Purple Hearts. Brown and Rocky slowly recovered side-by-side until Brown was transferred to Walter Reed Hospital for additional surgeries. Rocky is also doing well after suffering a broken femur in one of his hind legs and some injuries to his tail.
