The distinguished career of the 5th Security Forces Squadron Military Working Dog: Jessey, came to a close after six years of dedicated and honorable service to the U.S. Air Force. MWD Jessey served Minot Air Force Base for five years and was attached to only three handlers. In June, MWD Jessey‘s annual blood work revealed life threatening bone marrow cancer, which consequently led to loss of sight in her right eye barring her from further service. Staff Sgt. Eric Rod, was Jessey’s final handler and best friend when she was officially retired from duty on Nov. 20. (U.S. Air Force photos/ Tech. Sgt. Aaron Allmon)
