Fox News
U.S. Coast Guard Technician Second Class Zach Loesch says he is due to be discharged over his COVID-19 vaccine stance even after getting a call from President Biden.
"I told him how proud of him I was and thanked him for all the work he and his Coasties are doing to save lives," Biden said of his call with Loesch in remarks the White House published Friday.
In a readout of Biden’s call with Loesch and the other service members, the White House said, "The President thanked them for saving lives and asked for a report on the work that continues to rescue Floridians. He also asked if they needed any additional support that he can provide to accelerate successful rescues; they indicated they have gotten what they need to execute their vital mission."
