U.S. Marine Corps veteran Charlie Reeder, who served two tours in Afghanistan, talks to Yahoo Finance’s Alexis Christoforous about working to help free Afghan nationals who worked with the U.S. government. “They’ve been fighting with us for 20 years,” he said. “To just abandon them at the last minute is…heartbreaking.” He also discusses whether the U.S. troops should stay beyond the current deadline, and shares his views on whether the military effort was worthwhile.
