President Donald Trump extended his gratitude to a British Special Air Service hero who helped save Americans during a jihadi attack on a Kenyan hotel in 2019, the soldier has revealed.

The soldier, who uses the pseudonym 'Christian Craighead', shared a photo of his meeting with Trump at the White House on Instagram on Monday.

'Last year I had the privilege of meeting the 45th President of the United States Donald J. Trump,' he wrote in the caption.

And some people don’t understand why we love our
President. He actually cares! He shows respect and
appreciation for others.

Thanks to both of you for the service to our country.

SAS Ethos - Who Dares Wins

I have mixed feeling about things the English do, but deep respect for some of their military forces. SAS is one of them, they often shun media exposure but are extremely good soldiers.

In Northern Syria during the battle to end ISIS, in the initial stages preparing to take the ISIS capital of Raqqa, there was a night assault on the dam and power plant at Tabqa. Some SAS were dropped in to prepare for the attack. They worked with our Special Ops and the best of the SDF forces. They were able to capture the dam without it being blown up. It was already mined to do that.

The English’s Gurkha’s are also incredible soldiers.

BEST!

Our friend (long gone now) served with Gurka’s in Italy during WWII.

He participated in 4 campaigns 3 amphibious assaults. So, he was a hard man to impress. But he spoke with admiration and respect for the Gurka’s.

What is not to respect with them. Honorable and fierce fighters.
