Milo Tiber
Trajan * Died on service
Down jungle track through shot and shell
Ears pricked high, keen sense of smell
Our tracker dogs with care and poise
Alert to ambush, foreign noise
Never whimper, whine or bark
Their service honoured with this plaque
No medals pinned to hairy chest
They stayed behind, they were the best.
All Gave Something, Some Gave All
Those Who Knew You Will Never Forget You
