→Stranded Americans
Michael Yon, a former Special Forces soldier and war correspondent was among the private citizens working with private networks and the military to rescue stranded Americans. Yon said, "We had them out there waving their passport screaming, 'I'm American.' People were turned away from the gate by our own Army." Yon emailed to an Army major whose team had tried to coordinate the rescue before abandoning it. "You guys left American citizens at the gate of the Kabul airport. Three empty jets paid for by volunteers were waiting for them. You and I talked on the phone. I told you where they were. Gave you their passport images. And my email and phone number. And you left them behind. General Milley also knew. Great job saving yourselves. Probably get a lot of medals."<ref>https://justthenews.com/government/security/were-americans-people-screaming-outside-gates-kabul-airport-turned-away</ref><ref>https://justthenews.com/sites/default/files/2021-08/YonEmailToMajorRedacted.pdf</ref>

Former Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux told the Daily Caller News Foundation that his nonprofit organization had organized bus transport to the Kabul airport for 100 Christians, 300 orphans and 25 American citizens the morning of August 26, 2021.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2021/08/30/ron-johnson-american-citizens-blocked-kabul-airport-state-department/</ref> But when the evacuees arrived at the airport, Robichaux said a “military commander” made a scene and made the evacuees leave the airfield. “He really created a scene with us, did not like what we were doing and how we were doing it and actually made the people get back on the bus, put them outside the gate and essentially sic them back off to the Taliban,” Robichaux said of the military commander, which he identified as the commander of the 82nd Airborne Brigade during a separate interview with Newsmax.<ref>https://twitter.com/newsmax/status/1431018570822062081</ref>
