Military Hero sniffer dog who saved more than 1,000 lives during five tours of duty has died at the age of 13.
Springer spaniel Buster earned a row of campaign medals for his service over the course of five tours of duty to Bosina, Iraq and Afghanistan.
After his glittering service with the RAF, Buster retired in 2011, and died on Thursday evening at the home of his handler, Flight Sergeant Will Barrow, in Lincolnshire.

The RAF police are now planning to commemorate Buster as part of a special event to celebrate RAF Police Military Working Dogs.
Buster began working with Flt Sgt Barrow in 2007, and the pair were deployed to Afghanistan's deadly Helmand province.
Rest in peace Buster.
