It's Time To Honor Lucca, The Fuzziest Veteran You'll See Today Fun Love
Despite losing her leg in combat, Lucca continues to inspire lives with her unwavering enthusiasm.
Lucca is an amputee veteran who served six years in the United States Marine Corps as a Specialized Search Dog.
During that time, she spent two tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. She led "over 400 patrols," all of which resulted in no injuries.
For her first two tours she was accompanied by her handler, Gunnery Sgt. Chris Willingham.
Below, Lucca is pictured hitching a ride from Willingham back to the kennels after leading a two-hour search in Iraq.
In March of 2012, Lucca located a planted explosive while she was leading a patrol in Afghanistan with her second handler, Cpl. Juan Rodriguez.
