US Embassy repeatedly hangs up on veteran pleading for help
Fox News
A former U.S. soldier in Pakistan said the U.S. Embassy repeatedly hung up on him as he pleaded for help, and wouldn’t let him enter the building to speak with a government official.
"I showed up outside the U.S. Embassy and I literally begged them to let me in," the veteran, who goes by call sign "Legend," told Fox News. "It was that embarrassing. A U.S. citizen is not permitted entry in U.S. soil."
He said no one picked up when he tried one phone number. When someone answered a second number, he told them he was a U.S. soldier and needed help. He said he wasn’t comfortable discussing details over the phone, given their sensitivity. Fox News obtained and reviewed recordings of several of his phone calls, confirming his account.
