| Former U.S. Special Forces Officer Rescues Burmese Families as China-Backed Military Crushes Myanmar Villages |

| [Gateway] Inside a concrete schoolhouse that once echoed with children’s laughter, an elderly woman sits against painted yellow walls, tears streaming down her weathered face. Her family members can’t walk, she explains through sobs to the American missionary-soldier kneeling beside her. They need help evacuating before the bombs start falling again. This heartbreaking scene unfolded yesterday in southern Shan State, Myanmar, as thousands of civilians fled their homes after Burma Army forces launched a systematic assault on villages east of Pekhon Lake. Leading the rescue efforts is retired U.S. Army Major David Eubank, founder of Free Burma Rangers, whose teams of American/international volunteers and ethnic resistance fighters fare risking their lives to evacuate the wounded and displaced. Outside the school, two trucks full of Rangers stand ready—a mix of American veterans, second-generation missionaries, and local ethnic graduates of ranger training, acting as translators. These vehicles will evacuate as many wounded as possible, even if it means some Rangers must walk out on foot. It’s this kind of sacrificial commitment that defines the organization Eubank founded in 1997 after tribal leaders specifically requested "a warrior following Jesus" to help their people. One of the primary rules of FBR is "A Ranger cannot run if the people he is helping cannot run." |

| #1 Isn't this where that genocide is going on? Glad we're stepping in to bring it to a screeching halt. A crime against humanity is a crime against humanity no matter where it happens on planet Earth. |
