A former U.S. soldier returned to Afghanistan to try to rescue his family from the Taliban. While working toward securing them a safe passage, he saved at least 30 additional people, including Christians and other minorities.
"They say on the news there is no U.S. soldier in Afghanistan," the former staff sergeant told Fox News. "But I'm here, and I'll help as long as it takes."
"I'm a proud American soldier," the Afghanistan war veteran, who was discharged after suffering traumatic brain injuries, added. "I've taken an oath, and I'll never forget that oath."
