Mace said 155 Americans — including 11 infants — were evacuated from Israel as part of Grey Bull Rescue’s 808th mission.The group says it has rescued 591 Americans from the region since the outbreak of the conflict.
“They had the people but didn’t have the plane.I jumped in to assist,” Mace said.“Tonight I am grateful.And I will never forget what I saw.What I learned.And the Americans who volunteered and who are serving our nation patriotically tonight.”
“Congresswoman Mace was fully embedded with our team, not to watch, but to work to save lives,�“While a core value of Grey Bull Rescue is to be absolutely apolitical we are always PROUD AMERICANS to see our elected officials fighting for their constituents.”
