like most afghan interpreters will help u.s. troops zach and his entire family qualify to emigrate to the united states in exchange for the sacrifice they made for our country. our country created a specific visa category specifically for man like zak who helped u.s. troops so than their families who come to the united states. and zach first applied for that visa six years ago. but it hit a snag, because overall zach spent about three years working for the u.s. war effort in afghanistan, in addition for working for major schueman, he also spent time working for u.s. government contractor that was supplying translation services to the u.s. army. in order to get the visa, the special visa that was created for people like him, he needed to prove that he had worked for u.s. troops for two years or more, in order to do that he needed a letter from everybody he worked for including that contractor who set him up to translate for the u.s. army.
