With fighting showing no signs of slowing down, Florida Rep. Brian Mast watches the conflict in Iran with a vested interest. Few members of Congress see this conflict through a more personal lens. Mast lost both of his legs in Afghanistan, something he thinks about often.
The congressman tells CBN News. “I think about it when I put my legs on in the morning and set out to walking around the day.”
After recovery, he volunteered with the Israeli Defense Forces, the only congressman ever to do so. He helped prepare medical supplies on the front lines. Today, Mast is chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and as the U.S. and Israel target Iran daily, he says the stakes are clear.
