The first House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing will dive into the 'stunning failure' of the Biden administration's withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021.
According to committee aides, the purpose of the hearing is twofold – first, to serve as a"scene setter" and second, to allow veterans the chance to tell their stories and experiences on the ground during the withdrawal.
Task Force Pineapple, which Mann started and Gunderson helped operate, has successfully evacuated around 1,000 Afghan allies to date.
