Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Maj. Dawn Brown, a Marine Corps reservist with the 3rd Civil Affairs Group at Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan, plays with Allie, a black Labrador Retriever, employed to search for terrorists' bombs and explosive materials. Though Allie had survived two mortar attacks during this third deployment, she was badly injured during the second assault and started running away from loud noises and gun fire. The Marines she was with decided it would not be safe for her, or those who were chasing her when she ran, to stay in the field, so they sent her back to Camp Leatherneck for decompression and eventual return stateside. Decompression at Camp Leatherneck requires lots of socialization, so Brown took Allie for walks and brought the dog to her office to be around other people. Once Allie returns to the U.S. she will go through retraining and revaluation for continued work finding bombs. If she cannot recover, she will be adopted out as a pet.
