An Army Special Forces veteran says he was shocked to find out that a man he served two tours in Afghanistan with was brutally shot and killed while driving in"He served this country — this country, not even his country — way more than I did and I’m a 27-year veteran and I have six tours," Matthew Butler told FOX 5.
"I don’t have words for it. It’s unfathomable how senseless this is for somebody who came here for the express opposite reasons," Butler said. "Once your deployment is over, you’re in even more danger, than you were before because now you have nobody but yourself to defend – to defend yourself against the Taliban. That is really a huge sacrifice for somebody to make it. He was in a lot of danger in Afghanistan, so yeah, for him to come here and in less than two years after arriving in the States — it’s really devastating," said Jeramie Malone, who also helped Ahmad Yar and his family escape Afghanistan.
