SGT Tahmooressi made a wrong turn in a construction filled area and mistakenly arrived at the Mexican Border. He wanted to turn around but was not allowed to exit before the border.
Why is this important?
We don't abandon our own. SGT Tahmooressi is an honorable man who has faithfully served his country. His service, earning him a battlefield promotion, resulted in PTSD. Having recently arrived in San Diego to receive treatment from the VA, he was not familiar with the area. He was living out of his truck, and had all of his possessions, to include legally owned guns, in his vehicle when disallowed to turn around at the border.
SGT Tahmooressi has been held in a Mexican Prison for over 50 days.
Attention from the Secretary of State and President Obama could easily resolve this matter. Bring SGT Tahmooressi home NOW! We do not abandon our own.
