Army dog picks up scent
A fundamental part of Australian operations in Uruzgan Province, southern Afghanistan, is the search for improvised explosive devices laid by Taliban insurgents.
Australian Army Explosives Detection Dog (EDD) “Bundy” and his handler Sapper (Spr) David Brown are part of a wider effort to find and destroy the explosive devices that are indiscriminately killing and wounding Afghan civilians as well as military personnel.
