Afghanistan war veterans know something Congress doesn't

On Wednesday I will testify before the House Foreign Affairs Committee on our botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. I'll mention the country's collapse and the impact it's had.
Veterans know something about the impact of the Afghan withdrawal that our country seems oblivious to: we might be done with Afghanistan, but it's not done with us. Lt. Col.

I will testify on Wednesday as one of the initial witnesses for the long-awaited House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing that will re-visit the botched Afghan withdrawal by discussing the Afghanistan collapse and the impact it's had on our nation, the Afghan people, and our veterans.
The theme for my testimony is simple.
