3 years ago today Mama Lucca got her angel wings. MWD SSD Lucca K458 served in the Marine Corp I MEF for 6 years with 2 deployments to Iraq and 1 to Afghanistan. She served on over 400 patrols discovering hidden weapons, IED's and the opposition while saving many lives. Her 2 handlers then were Gunnery Sergeant Chris Willingham and Corporal Juan Rodriguez. The book, Top Dog, written by Maria Goodavage, reflected on her life of service and retirement after being injured after an IED explosion. Lucca went on to be a spokesperson for MWD's and injured soldiers making many a trip to VA's to support them emotionally in their recovery. Lucca was awarded the PDSA Dickin Medal, honoring animals "for conspicuous gallantry or devotion to duty while serving or associated with any branch of the Armed Forces or Civil Defense Units" and is commonly referred to as "the animals' Victoria Cross" Both Chris and Juan spent the last week of Mama Lucca's life together bringing her to the beach and treating her to her favorite foods and were present when she took her last breath.
