Lucca was a heroic military dog born in the Netherlands. After training in Israel, she was sent to the United States and became a specialized search dog for the U.S. Marine Corps. During her six years of service, she completed over 400 missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, successfully detecting ammunition, explosives, and insurgents at least 40 times, with no casualties among her accompanying troops. In 2012, during her final mission in Afghanistan, Lucca discovered a 30-pound IED. While continuing her search, she lost a leg when she stepped on another IED. Her handler, Cpl. Rodriguez, administered first aid, and she was airlifted to Germany for treatment. Remarkably, Lucca was walking again just ten days after the explosion. After retirement, Lucca lived in California with Gunnery Sgt. Willingham and his family. She was awarded the PDSA Dickin Medal, generating more public attention than any other recipient in the award's 73-year history. In 2019, she was posthumously awarded the Animals in War & Peace Medal of Bravery. Her life story was documented in a book titled "Top Dog: The Story of Marine Hero Lucca." Lucca passed away on January 20, 2018.
