BARSTOW, Calif. - K-9 Officer Bady began his tour of duty aboard Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow in May 2015 at which time he was assigned to Cpl. Gilberto Navarrete.
The team was certified within 57 days as an explosives detection team, nearly three weeks ahead of schedule.
In addition to providing patrol and detection services for the base, Cpl. Navarrete and K-9 Bady also provided detection support for the United States Secret Service and State Department for Pope Francis during his visit to New York City, to include his address to the U.N. General Assembly in September 2015; President of the United States during a visit to San Jose, Calif., February 2016; as well as a joint law enforcement mutual aid call during the terrorist attacks in San Bernardino, Calif., in December 2015.
They received a Certificate of Appreciation for their support of the Secret Service and then a Meritorious Conduct Medal for their assistance during the Dec. 2 San Bernardino terrorist attack.
K-9 Bady succumbed to illness on Feb. 14, 2016. He will be deeply missed. Rest in peace War-Dog.
