(Western Journalism) B. Christopher Agee - Retired U.S. Army SSG Brian Mast served his nation for 12 years before losing both legs fighting in Afghanistan. He will be traveling to Israel on Jan. 10 to help the Israeli Defense Forces as a Sar-El volunteer. He said his motivation to go to Israel was triggered when he witnessed anti-Israel demonstrations on the campus of Harvard University, where he is a full-time student. "This past summer I was there studying," he said. "I saw the anti-Israeli protest in the face of the attempted indiscriminate bombardment of Israel. It was then that I decided I needed to find a way to go help however I can and however [Israel] would have me....The biggest threat against America, I believe, is also the biggest threat against Israel."
