The one-year anniversary of the day Kabul, Afghanistan fell to terrorists in Joe Biden’s botched withdrawal is less than a week away.
And for my husband – Republican Congressman and U.S. Army veteran Brian Mast – this is a day that I know will be hard for him.
You see, when the entire country watched American citizens left behind, saw troops needlessly killed and recognized that women would be subjugated under the Taliban, I remember seeing something in my husband’s eyes…
…It was him questioning whether all of his sacrifice fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan was even worth it.
For those that don’t know, Brian was nearly killed after an explosive device planted by the Taliban went off directly beneath him while he was serving in the Kandahar region of Afghanistan. The blast took both of his legs and part of his hand, but by the grace of God, his life was spared.
