Sometimes the best way you can show your support is to join the force working to defend your country. Air Force Airman 1st Class Murad Mohiadeen was born in Iraq 20 years ago and then moved to America in 1990. He was two years old when he moved to America with his family.
Since emigrating in 1990, his family has worked hard and enjoyed the freedom in the United States. It was worth the effort, as his family settled in Los Angeles for many years, and then later moved to Portland Oregon.
