Saving our Afghan allies is an arduous process. It takes years of vetting for them to get a special immigrant visa, a crucial step in the process. The costs of medical exams and vaccinations is also astronomical for people living in abject poverty.
In this episode of Dear Ohio Curtis talks to a former Afghan interpreter now living in Cincinnati and the Army officer who helped him get there. Through first-hand accounts, they explain the danger and the difficulty of going from Afghanistan to Ohio.
