WOOTTON BASSETT, England, March 11 (UPI) -- Dogs -- family pets as well as police K-9 dogs -- were brought to an English town Thursday to honor a British Army dog handler and his Springer spaniel.
The spaniel, Theo, had a fatal seizure last week, 3 hours after Lance Cpl. Liam Tasker of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps was killed in Afghanistan. Tasker's body and Theo's ashes were flown together to RAF Lyneham near Wootton Bassett in Wiltshire, The Daily Telegraph reported.
