The body of a Lance Corporal Liam Tasker who died along with his record breaking sniffer dog in Afghanistan last week has returned home to the UK today. The returning of the ashes of the 26-year-old's dog Theo broke protocol and were flown home on the same plane as L/Cpl Tasker. Liam, who was called a "rising star" by Army chiefs, was shot dead by Taliban snipers and 22 month old cross Springer Spaniel Theo died of a seizure shortly after his master. Working as a team, L/Cpl Tasker and Theo had found a record 14 hidden bombs and weapons caches in just five months, saving the lives of many British soldiers. May they and all the other soldiers dying in Tony Blair's war, Rest In Peace.
