    Today was my last day at the State Department. I wish my former civilian and military colleagues well as they work under extremely difficult circumstances to protect the interests of our great country. It was a privilege to serve alongside them.

        Respect to you Brett. We are all sorry to see you go. You maintained a professional coalition against ISIS and were a friend to the YPG/SDF forces who sacrificed thousands to defeat ISIS. I hope you continue to lobby for protection for them as Turkey threatens their freedoms won.
