SOF Pic of the Day: From Geo Hand’s Private Stash-Delta Operators and a Special Operations Military Working Dog

Not much is known about this photograph, as it should be. All we know for certain is that those are Delta operators; the canine is a Special Operations Military Working Dog (SOMWG), and the image was provided to us by Geo Hand. Back in 2019, the image accompanied a story about how a SOF operator was gifted a SOMWG named Silver by the Navy SEAL Museum during their 34th Annual Muster and Music Festival.

Be sure to watch the story of Axe, a Special Operations Military Working Dog who scared the hell out of the Taliban.
