The National Guardsman who jumped into the Rio Grande on Friday to save two illegal immigrants and then went missing, has been identified. Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin first published the photos from the soldier's family Sunday afternoon.
Evans removed his gear before jumping in to save the illegal immigrants, who turned out to be part of a Mexican drug cartel and trafficking operation.

Still, the media refuses to say anything about this as it’s more Blood on Biden’s hands, so they spike the story. Corrupt news.
Mexican cartel members. 22 year old black guardsman. Presumably drowned is right.
At least he died protecting our country - oh wait a minute 🤪
As someone who thinks Border guards should be shooting at invaders, not sure what to think about this.
Twin .50’s would seem to be in order. Maybe some A-10s on patrol? LGB!
That's because he was a brave American soldier who happened to be black, that believed in service before self and died because of it. If he was a repeat offending criminal who happened to be black, shot and killed by police during the commission of another felony he'd be canonized by Biden and the RAT cult by now.
This young National Guardsman died trying to save a damn drug trafficker he obviously did NOT know this bastard was a drug trafficker but he should NEVER have been in a situation of having to save ANYONE invading our country!! This makes me sick!!
This guy was a victim of his own governments rhetoric.
They are not poor benighted refugees. Outside of the children being drug behind the adults, they are criminals, opportunists every last one of them. Each deserves not a scintilla of sympathy from us - only a swift boot in the ass back where they came from.
Or did he die because his heart was damaged or weakened by a vax shot ?
If he were murdered the media could not spike the news, so the narrative has to be "presumably drowned".
His body has been found. Prayers for his family.
brandan’s bizarro world
Just a damn shame all the way around. The only upside to this is that he gave his life for others whether deserving or not.
I haven’t been able to avoid wondering it they did something to him. The river isn’t very wide where people generally cross, from what I’ve seen on television. Were there any nearby witnesses to what happened?
Black Border Guards Lives Matter.
My guess is he died because he went into the Rio Grande without wearing a life vest/flotation device. If that is the case, then his entire chain of command should be relieved of their duties immediately. These "leaders" demonstrated their unfitness for command.
This is merely my perspective as a former Army officer, 8+ years active duty, Air Defense Artillery, platoon leader and battery commander.
There should have been strict rules of engagement to our soldiers from their unit commanders. My soldiers knew when I was "serious as a heart attack", and they paid attention to what I was telling them.
Being on the border, that would qualify as a "serious as a heart attack" moment.
God bless hero 22-year-old TX National Guard SPC. Bishop E. Evans of Arlington, TX and his family and loved ones. Amen.
“President Joe Biden has been briefed on the situation, but has not issued a statement about the incident. He spent the day golfing in Delaware.”
I didn’t know they had Goony Golf in Delaware. Predators go to where the prey is, though.
