Soldier, working dog partner survive direct blast from suicide bomber in Afghanistan
By Staff Writer| September 21st, 2018

A wounded US Army Specialist and his K-9 have been reunited after both were badly injured in Afghanistan last month.

22-year-old Specialist Alec Alcoser and 8-year-old K-9 Sergeant Alex were brought together again in Texas last week, following their harrowing encounter with an Afgan suicide bomber on August 5.

“I would yell at him and his ears would twitch, but he wouldn’t look at me,” said Alcoser. “I think he was in a state of shock. He didn’t growl, he didn’t bark, he didn’t cry. He stayed right there.”
