Story
Kuno was sent forward when troops were pinned down by grenade and machine-gun fire during a raid in Afghanistan.
He tackled the gunman, was shot in both hind legs, and later received treatment including partial amputation and prosthetic support.
Kuno is recorded because the story preserves both life-saving animal work and the physical cost borne by the dog.
