The dogs of war

Continuing a jaunt around the Anglosphere, there's this totally cool item:

"Dogs will lead the way in SAS raids after being parachuted in to spy out rebels for troops, The Sun can reveal.

"Fearless German Shepherds are being trained to jump from aircraft at 25,000ft wearing their own oxygen masks and strapped to special forces assault teams.

"Once down in hostile terrain in Iraq or Afghanistan, the dogs will be sent in first to seek out insurgents’ hideouts with tiny cameras fixed to their heads.

"The cameras will beam live TV pictures back to the troops, warning of ambushes or showing enemy leaders’ locations."

As a side note: It's nice to see exclusives -- good job, Sun.
