(CNN) -- Three Americans are fighting alongside Kurdish forces against the Islamic State terror group in northern Syria, a spokesman for the Kurdish group told CNN on Thursday.
One of the Americans was identified by the Kurdish People's Protection Units, also known as the YPG, as Jordan Matson of Wisconsin.
Matson is fighting in Haska province near the town of Jazaa, close to the Iraqi border, YPG spokesman Redur Xelil said by telephone.

DAESH; thanks for using the preferred acronym. And barry keeps calling them ISIL. This sucks, the French are showing more balls then the US. The humiliation never ends.
I like it. I had no idea. Thanks for cluing me in. Is there anyone backing the Kurds with real resources? (’cause our help is probably only a token effort)
Israel has been using DAESH in the newspapers since the beginning. France is even closer than the US to being on the same page as Israel, too. Now they’re going to make me file a 1040 even though I’m here? Renouncing citizenship grows attractive.
CNN is a collaborator. They’ve been collaborating with anyone who has a wicked agenda for years.
Folks thinking about going over there are gonna have to learn to speak the language over there...
Wonder if Rosetta Stone has a disk for that???
Plus the food stinks!
IIII’m jus sayin’...
Israel.
File yes; pay...maybe not. Hey God’s speed El, prayers with you.
If I end up paying one dime for that mealy-mouthed gay horse’s arse’s notion of foreign ‘policy,’ renouncing will become all that more attractive. I could truly say that I’d do it for a thin dime.
I would not object overmuch to that happening to the ‘journalist’ who decided to print personal details that puts an American in harm’s way’s family in jeopardy back home, or the editor who allowed it, or the publisher. The government, however, would never do that. Unfortunately?
I agree with your take on it.
