Stefanik visits with soldiers in Afghanistan
North Country Congresswoman Elise Stefanik recently returned from congressional delegation visit in Afghanistan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia, where she visited with several Fort Drum Soldiers just before Thanksgiving.
In addition to visiting troops in Afghanistan, Stefanik said she and the Congressional delegation met with officials in Egypt and Saudi Arabia to receive updates on the war in Syria, Iran’s nuclear program, Daesh (also called ISIS) and Libya.
“This trip was an important opportunity to visit with our brave men and women of the 10th Mountain Division and thank them for their brave service this holiday season,” said Congresswoman Stefanik. “These soldiers put their lives on the line for us each day, and as the Vice-Chair for the Subcommittee on Readiness, this was a chance to hear firsthand from our troops. We live in an increasingly dangerous world and I am proud that we have these brave men and women defending our national security."
