Joshua and Stephanie Mast recount their five-year ordeal involving the rescue and subsequent adoption of their daughter, Sparrow, from Afghanistan. The couple, speaking on the Shawn Ryan Show YouTube channel, describes how Joshua, a Marine JAG officer, became involved in Sparrow's case while deployed. They detail encountering resistance from elements within the US State Department who, they allege, prioritised the Afghan peace deal over Sparrow's safety, including the claim that the embassy turned Sparrow over to possible Taliban affiliates. The interview follows the couple's legal battles, a Board of Inquiry into Joshua's actions, and their eventual reunion with Sparrow after she was found and rescued from behind Taliban lines. The Masts also praise the numerous individuals, from medical staff to military personnel, who aided in Sparrow's rescue, while also raising concerns about government overreach and corruption. They emphasise their unwavering belief that they acted morally and legally in protecting Sparrow, despite facing intense criticism and professional repercussions.
