As I'm sure you've all seen in the news, Afghan interpreters are trying to GTFO while they still can.

On my FB page that I run, one such interpreter has reached out and is trying to get ahold of someone from one of the ODAs he supported. I have photos of him, some team members, his ID cards and that of his family. He also provided certificates from deployment time frames.

I'm trying to find someone from the following ODAs at the following times. I have a link to a Google Drive with all of the information they have provided and will share it via private message.

ODA 361, September 2005 to February 2006
ODA 772, January 2006 to September 2006
ODA 371, September 2006 to March 2007
ODA 745, March 2007 to October 2007
B, 3rd BN, 7th SFG, January 2009
AOB 3310, No date provided

Any help would be appreciated. He's got like four kids and in his home village, Taliban are going door to door looking for terps. He's in Kabul right now, but needs a POC to write him a letter from his time supporting USSF.

**EDIT: It looks like all of his work was done in Jalalabad, mostly out of Camp Dwyer.**

Is there a need for hosting interpreters and their families?

Help with: Getting connected in a local community, Security deposits First and last months rent, cosigning, jobs, cars, driver licenses, insurance etc. or does uncle Joe have this covered?

Depends on where they are being resettled. For instance, here is one group:
