As a vet who served in Afghanistan, it saddens me how many Americans didn't think anything of our Afghanistan pullout. Most have already forgotten. It's disgraceful what we did to our brothers that helped us. It'd be a miracle if any of them left were still alive. We gave them empty promises of "if you help us, we'll help you". We didn't..... So many men like him and we turned our backs. This brilliant administration pulled out hastily and sloppily. Never forget that.

We can only hope that many of them got out. I have two terps that I would move mountains to see again. This has been eating me up since we pulled out. These men and women put their lives and the lives of their family on the line for our safety. I pray that they are safe!!

The USA gave Afghanistan almost 20 years of protection, blood, sweat and wealth to provide them the means to stand on their own. When the time came, they threw down their arms and fled from a ragtag terrorist cabal. You place blame on the wrong people. Defend your blood and soil or lose it, that is the history of life on earth.

I’m also angry & embarrassed that America didn’t do what they promised to keep his family safe. They had to go to the media with their story in order to have refuge for him & that is just so disappointing. I hope these men have happy lives & I Really appreciate their service.

I don't think we should rely on a fictitious movie, as factual information as to what the US administration and the the hierarchy officials in the US military didn't do for their Afghan interpreters, making promise to get them out , yet negating on their promises. The taliban wiped them out and their entire families. Many, many are in hiding and fear for their lives. Just another example of inhumanity of the US government and their quick & poorly planned withdrawal from Afghanistan. Reminds me of Siagon. Again it came down to the individual soldiers working alone or together to get people out, although most were left behind to face imminent death for their services to the american soldiers 18:19 and officials. Shame on America 🇺🇸. My ❤ goes out those Afghan's who served and left behind. 😢
