About this listen

When Sergeant Alfred Brenner and his military dog Grief were hit by an IED in Afghanistan, he wasn't focused on the pain his severe injuries were causing - but on the fact nobody was calling out for his partner, Grief. In the months to follow, Sergeant Brenner underwent many physical challenges while recovering. But nothing would come close to the pain he endured learning to live without Grief -- who wasn't only his K9, but his closest ally and best friend. Retired Sergeant Brenner joins Ben to open up about what this recovery process was like, how he continues to honor Grief's memory, and why the bond that forms between a soldier and man's best friend is incomparable -- something he explores in depth in his book, Surviving with Grief: The Story of How a Marine and His Dog Survived The Everyday Battles of War.
