2 Americans volunteering with Syrian Kurds, die battling ISIS
2017-07-13
[Ynet] A U.S.-backed Syrian Kurdish militia says two American volunteers were killed fighting the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group in northern Syria last week.

The People's Protection Units, also known by their Kurdish initials as the YPG, announced Tuesday that 29-year-old Nicolas Alan Warden of Buffalo, New York, died in battle on July 5 in Raqqa, IS' de-facto capital.

The YPG says 28-year-old Robert Grodt from Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, was killed on July 6 in the same battle.

The U.S. military has developed a close relationship with the YPG and its parent coalition, the Syrian Democratic Forces, in the war against IS.

The two men were not members of the U.S. special forces embedded with the Syrian coalition.
