One day after a military dog attached to the U.S. Army's Delta Force detachment had his photo and identity revealed, his image appeared on merchandise for purchase.
U.S. Army General Mark A. Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Monday at a Pentagon briefing that Conan was"slightly wounded and fully recovering." The Pentagon did not disclose the dog's identity at the time as the animal was instrumental in the top secret raid, but he has since returned to duty.
Military dogs are typically noncommissioned officers with a rank higher than their handlers. The working dogs have been used since World War I, and they are often assigned to special operations or high-level missions, Which include sniffing out and finding improvised explosive devices . On Wednesday, Trump shared a photoshopped image showing Trump presenting Conan with a paw-shaped medal attached to a blue ribbon, similar to the Medal of Honor given to war heroes.
