Grant asylum request of Afghanistan citizen Muhammed Gulab for saving the life of Navy Seal Marcus Luttrell.

Created by B.B. on January 15, 2015

In a remarkable story depicted in the movie "Lone Survivor" and told on "60 Minutes," four Navy SEALs were trapped in an extraordinarily hellish firefight in the mountains of northeastern Afghanistan in 2005. Three of the SEALs were killed.

Luttrell was the only survivor. But he had been shot twice, and suffered several cracked vertebrae and shrapnel wounds in his leg.

Alone and certain he was dying, he was discovered by Gulab, who took him to his village and protected him from the Taliban.

Gulab and his family are no longer safe to live in their home country due to his courageous stand. He and his family should now be able to live in peace here in the USA.
