I served in Iraq with the 1st battalion 87th Infantry regiment 10th Mountain division. I can tell you with firsthand experience that our interpreters were true Patriots of their country. And I would go back to hell with them. This story made me so damn happy for this true American. Welcome home brother!
That’s very true thank you for your service
Thank you for your service!
What year?
I was born and raised in Watertown, never was able to serve our country as I have a blood disorder. But I tried like hell. Thank you for your service and I thank every foreign soilder that helped get my fellow Americans home to their family 🙏
Welcome home to you as well 🫡
Happy as hell to call a man like Aziz a fellow Texan!!!
That’s very wholesome and welcoming I’m glad things turned out good for him and his family
Same I was just thinking man I’d love for him to live in my city to meet him
Aziz from Calnet?
Much Respect for BOTH men!! Hell of a job!!
That man Aziz is more American than a lot of people here. Honored to have him amongst us.
Amen
Aziz, you're a fucking legend brother. Glad to have you hear in this land.
Aziz’ story is the true American story. He’s not American just because he was born here. He’s American because he chose to be. He chose freedom. He chose democracy. And he fought for it. Not just for himself, but for his family and for everyone else. I’m proud to have him in our family now. Welcome to Texas, Aziz.
Lmfao a droplet in a bucket, man did youre country ever fuck over youre interpreters lol not us, not the polish, not the brits, not the italians, not the japanese, literally nobody but you guys, oh yeah true american haha
Amen brother
We're a Constitutional Republic with democratic elections but we're not a democracy.
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting what to have for dinner.
Yeah without going over to 3rd world countries and showing them force of power we would not be safe. God bless
Here I am, 36, two deployments.. crying like a kid, just moved by this story.
Thank you - knowing that something good happened at this shitty end that it was.
It's ok shhh now shhh
Thank you for your service brother
Yeah. I feel that way too. I was a helo guy and had no personal involvement with terps. But two of the proudest missions I flew were supporting the first free election in Iraq; and flying teams of female medics and doctors out to villages to treat local women who were denied medical care.
I feel terrible about the way the Afghan war ended, but I think the way Iraq ended was just as bad. We pulled out and isis took over.
I’m glad some of them made it out ok.
I had the honor of meeting both of these amazing men: the focus and flippable switch from seemingly complete ease to intensity were expected. Their incredible kindness and intentionality were not. In a world that advertises millions of "idols," "icons," "influencers," and "role models" that universally disappoint, Chad and Aziz are men genuinely worthy of looking up to as men who are dangerous and under control, accomplished and refuse to settle for the apparently possible, and of deep character that doesn't compromise.
Demon hand, Buddha Heart
Did you ask him how hard it was dragging those big balls around?
This dude is fearless
Bless you Aziz and u brother
Well said
Aziz is impressive warfighter. Good dude. You can tell.
He’s here in the US. It’s in the video fam
@@robdubent I seen that after my comment
Thanks for bringing stories like this into the light. Freedom isn't free
True, I have my guy Sadık from Iraq.
This is one of the best human stories I've seen on this channel, and there's many very good ones. Aziz will be an excellent American, as will his six children. Every Western country that fought in Afghanistan had some excellent interpreters working with them. Guys like Aziz stuck their necks out to defend our soldiers over and over again. It would have been a very rough job. It made them huge targets for the Taliban and insurgent types of all sorts. They were effectively marked for death if the Taliban took the country back. And the Taliban took the country back. Chad Robicheaux's efforts in getting Aziz out of Afghanistan at such a tumultuous time are to be truly commended. That would have been really, really difficult. I'm so glad they were all able to make it happen. Aziz and his family are safe, thanks to some very grateful and resourceful people. God bless you all. From an appreciative Australian.
I have no doubt that people like Aziz will make the best kind of American.
60,000 died fighting for their Country... GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL WHO Fought FOR FREEDOM. THANK YOU 🙏🏼
I was embedded with the ANCOP as a mentor on one of my trips to Afghanistan. I fought side by side with our Afghans. They fought and died for their freedoms and I miss them.
Aziz, thank you for your service in supporting our service members and our country’s values. I am humbled and truly grateful that I will call you a fellow American in a few years after the naturalization process. Chad, thank you and all the other veterans and people around the world who risked their own lives to allow another human being to live their life in a democracy where freedom reigns. 🇺🇸 🗽
One of the best "friendship stories" ever---fantastic----go old glory.
Fellow Iraq Vet and am happy to call Aziz and his family true Americans and Patriots. Thank you for your service.
What a uplifting story! So glad you could rescue your brother in arms and life!
Chad and Aziz, thank you for your service. This is an amazing story of loyalty and brotherhood. Welcome home! Texas is proud to have you all!
Gripping story with a happy ending for Aziz and his family
Probably one of the best stories out there
Welcome home Aziz! Thank you both for your service to this country.
This is by far one of the best, if not the best video brcc has put out! The intensity of this whole story is almost unmanageable. Chad is the embodiment of a hero and Patriot! 🇺🇲🙏
I was never in the military, but many of my friends were. Welcome to Texas Aziz, I'm glad you and your countrymen who assisted our people are here and safe.
I’ll say it again gentleman, this needs to be a full length film, absolutely riveting
What an amazing story, and what an amazing couple of blokes! I'm an Australian Iraq and Afghanistan veteran.
One of the best episode! Guys, you doing awsome work!💪👊
The stories are great but what I appreciated the most is the slow time break down of the incident on the range with both the guys afterwards. So insightful and adds so much depth to the story.
Makes me very proud that knowing you guys share all the stories of Americans supporting and fighting for us at home. Thank you and to to the brave men and women whom fight for us. I watch every single video you guys put out. Coming from my military family...Really thank you all for your service
Chad didn’t mention this, and I’m sure neither he nor Glenn would even care about the publicity, but a large reason why they were able to raise such a vast sum of money in such a short time frame was that Chad & Mighty Oaks had partnered with Glenn Beck and his Nazarene Fund. Both men were pounding the halls of Congress, the military, traveling to and from the UAE, and other places as well to get thousands of people evacuated.
They did great things.
This story warmed my hear I'm an ex British infantry vet and I agree they are real warriors patriots will give there life for your and many have done love this story glad it had a happy ending and all his family can live free and happy now ❤
Axis risked everything. Man’s got balls of steel. So glad he and his family got out. From one Texan to another, welcome home. Thank you BRCC for bringing this story to light. You guys might not know this, but you’re not just a coffee company, you’re a movement that this country desperately needs.
No words… just joy and love these TRUE Americans!!!! ❤️✝️🇺🇸🫡
I love seeing elite warriors come home its a privilege to get to hear thier stories of their courageous efforts and battles i love the elite warriors that fought alongside our warriors with a brotherhood felt and forged through hardships on an international scale
Chad introduced me to Jiu Jitsu and is an American 🇺🇸 Hero! Thank you brother for your service.
Aziz!!!...We love ya bro. You're more of an American than some of the Americans born and raised here. Not only that, but you're a Soldier. You deserve the utmost respect...We need more men like you, Brother. And you lived the motto---Semper Fi 🤝🇺🇸.
May God bless you and yours
We live among GIANTS and Chad & Aziz are patriots, Brothers & Giants who I have much respect for after learning what they went through. We are so lucky that there are people like Aziz and Chad...may God Bless both of you and your families and all of the men & woman we have lost during that war.
Thank you for your service. Thank you for being good Americans.
This was one of my favorite ones BRCC! Keep up the good work over there. 🇺🇲
Im loving these "Stories Of Survival"! These men are true hero's. Real men.
I'm glad you got your ally and friend here to safety.
My daughter's fiance' was involved in the withdrawal and is currently suffering with significant PTSD.
These men are the definition of Bravery.
While I trained up for the sand pit I didn't end up going (Australian Army). The Lads that did went through hell like these guys did. And every single one of these guys, Australian, American, British etc., have this Digger's utmost respect👊👊👊
Incredible story. Robichaux wasn't the only Chad on that battlefield.
ANA terps for ISAF earned thier right to asylum.
Very well highlighted by BRCC
Good on you.
One of the best stories I’ve heard!! Thank you
how cool is it he made a brother on the other side of the world. theres still hope out there, love everybody we are all in this together.
Thank you Aziz for your service. May God bless you and your family.
This reminds me of my brother-in-law, Johnny, and his interpreter. Johnny served 4 tours in Afghanistan. After he got home he lost his battle with PTSD and shot himself. After his death, Johnny’s mom continued the work to get his interpreter and his family to the US. It took several years, but thankfully we got his interpreter and his family here in early 2020.
The fact we left those in Afghanistan who bled for us is a disgrace. I’m ashamed of what we failed to do.
Words can’t convey how amazing this story is!!!! Thank you 👍
Absolutely amazing story! Thank you for your service Aziz & Chad.

Just came across this channel and I love it. Thank you to those who gave some and most importantly those who gave it all. ❤🇺🇸💪🙏
This is such a good and inspiring story. I dont think there will be a friendship, a bond even, like you two have anywhere in the world. Real Brotherhood. Thank you both for all you did, warriors.
Amazing video. I have no words. Humanity at its finest
Thank you guys for your service
This is absolutely amazing, God Bless Aziz and Chad, these guys are real heroes!! Semper Fi
I miss some of the ANA I met on my first trip in '04. I will never forget my brother Rambo over there. I have nothing but respect for those dudes, they sacrificed so much and we 💩 on them in return, it makes my blood boil and my heart weep as for them today as an adult just the same as 9.11 set the trajectory of my life for the same reasons but at home. Aziz bro I love you and your story man, respect brother 🤙🏻
You talking about Rambo from Camp Phoenix? The lion of a man who stopped countless suicide bombers?
@@ealiasnazir this was at fob Lagman out by the city of Qalat sir
Thank you for everything.
Beautiful story, thanks for bringing a man like him back Chad, true American Spirit.
My new favourite RUclips channel. Huge respect to you everyone involved and thanks for bringing these important stories to the masses ❤️
Thank you sir! Its a shame you had to watch your freedom being taken away after all your hard work.
Amazing story. Thanks for both of your work.
What a great story and that’s what I call loyalty not only to your country but to your friends . Much respect for both me who sacrificed so much of there lives so we can sleep without the threat of some terrorist knocking on our front door .
Sending Mad Respect to Aziz and Chad. You are both American Heroes and Worthy of honor from one Combat Vet to another. Thank You from the bottom of my heart.
Watching this from India. My congratulations to Mr Aziz and his family. Hopefully things get better in Afghanistan in coming years. Aziz is truly a asset for US.
Wow omg this is awesome I’m so proud of our soldiers I’m so proud of been an American 🇺🇸 😊
Glad to have a man like that in our great state and nation. Him and his children are what America was built on, hardworking smart people who want better for themselves we can use more of that.
God bless you and your service. Outstanding!!
Thank you for your service brothers. God bless you.
Thank you ALL for your Service.
WOW is all I can say. God bless you both and your families!

Happy to be a part of this great video. Professor Chad is a great teacher and mentor that has led a very interesting and amazing life. I am glad to see Black Rifle sharing amazing veteran stories like this one
Thank you for your service.
Namaste
These men are heros i dont care what anyone says what a legend thank you for your story may god bless you all
Damn. This hits hard. Good work on both of your parts.
I understand the connection you have with the local national (interpreter) you were assigned but it was up to you both to build on that and protect each other as brothers fighting for the same cause. Well done.
This story brings me to tears of sorrow and joy at the same time. Semper Fi.
Absolutely stunning job on this story. Thank you for sharing and educating me. What a travesty it was for our country to leave the way we did, but I am in awe of those who still did what they did to save a friend, brother, family.
What an amazing story. Respect to all current, former, living, retired, and dead service members. Welcome home guys.
1/6 checking in, damn it brings tears to me that we couldn’t do this at the time I was in fallujah for Nemo and Sam! I never knew if they made it back but I was there when Nemo came back from early leave because his whole family had been killed at his house. Sam’s family was supposedly been killed the same way before we got there. They were our interpreters and great men that stood in many firefights and telling us where to eat sleep and go sit in op’s etc.
2005 fallujah
I envy troops like this man. I would do it still in a heart beat!
There is a deep story in the conflict that is only understood by those involved 👌 It was awesome to hear this story 👍
This has got to be one of the greatest war stories I have ever heard in my entire life in my humble opinion!!
Welcome to America! Thank you for your sacrifice and service. True patriot
Aziz your an incredible man, a patriot to your country, and a hero for standing up and supporting American warriors ty.
Welcome to Texas! Happy and proud as hell to have ya. Thank you for your service. God bless
I partied my 20’s away, Aziz was putting in that work with Tier 1 units.
Legend
What a story…. Holy shit. Hats off to both of these guys
True warriors. Highest respect earned.
