No
Ordinary Dog is the powerful true story of a SEAL Team Operator and military
dog handler, and the dog that saved his life.
Two dozen Navy SEALs descended
on Osama bin Laden’s compound in May 2011. After the mission, only one name was
made public: Cairo, a Belgian Malinois and military working dog. This is
Cairo's story, and that of his handler, Will Chesney, a SEAL Team Operator
whose life would be irrevocably tied to Cairo's.
Starting in 2008, when Will was
introduced to the SEAL canine program, he and Cairo worked side by side,
depending on each other for survival on hundreds of critical operations in the
war on terrorism. But their bond transcended their service. Then, in 2011, the
call came: Pick up your dog and get back to Virginia. Now.
What followed were several
weeks of training for a secret mission. It soon became clear that this was no
ordinary operation. Cairo was among the first members of the U.S. military on
the ground in Pakistan as part of Operation Neptune Spear, which resulted in
the successful elimination of bin Laden.
As Cairo settled into a role as
a reliable “spare dog,” Will went back to his job as a DEVGRU operator, until a
grenade blast in 2013 left him with a brain injury and PTSD. Unable to
participate in further missions, he suffered from crippling migraines, chronic
pain, memory issues, and depression. Modern medicine provided only modest
relief. Instead, it was up to Cairo to save Will's life once more―and then up
to Will to be there when Cairo needed him the most.
