The women were part of a convoy that was attacked and both were injured. Fearing for their lives, Johndrow personally worked to get the women to the United States as part of a special program designed for civilians who worked with the military and now were in danger. His ultimate goal was citizenship for both women. “I am so proud of these two women”, said Mr. Johndrow while wiping tears from his eyes “they are about to become citizens of this great Nation.”
On January 17, 2013 in Great Falls, Montana at the U.S. Federal Court Building Iraqi sisters Afrah and Lina Al Asadi were sworn in as citizens to the United States of America.
